Assessment of applications

Note: It has been recognised that boards within organisations stand to gain significant benefits and greater transference of key messages where a chief executive officer / executive director / executive officer is supported by a board director also attending a leadership development opportunity for example, one aimed at improving knowledge and understanding of governance.
