This 1.5-day face-to-face course is open exclusively to Governing Board Members and Principals of AISWA schools and is being run in partnership with the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD), a leading provider of governance education and development programs.

AICD has the largest director membership in the world, comprised of leaders from not-for-profit, private and public sectors in Australia and across the globe.
