Governance Module 2 – Due Diligence

A Christian school board should demonstrate a godly attitude to their governance duties and faithfulness in the governance task. In many ways, community and regulatory expectations align very well with our Christian values of integrity, transparency and working for the good of others. In governance, this is captured in the concept of ‘due diligence’. This course will help boards in this very important aspect of board service.

Description


Course structure

The course is designed to be completed as a module that is part of the suite of governance training courses. However, boards can access individual topic modules as needed.

These short-courses can be undertaken by individual board members, or be completed as a board together. The modules are kept short so boards can fit the training into their busy board calendars.

The training builds on the materials covered in the Board Induction Course, and this is a useful pre-requisite to the governance modules.
