The Australian Institute of Company Directors will be organising another Fiji Directors Courses this March.
This follows the success of the first two programmes rolled out last year.
Australian Institute of Company Directors’ Fiji committee chairman Nouzab Fareed, who is also Fijian Holding Group Limited chief executive, stressed the importance of such courses for business leaders’ development.
Mr Fareed, a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (GAICD) said: “We recognise that it’s important that directors and business leaders in Fiji have the opportunity to attend relevant education programs locally.”
The directors course will be attended by leaders from the public and private sectors, as well as the not-for-profit (NFP) sector, he said.
It is suitable for non-executive and executive directors and senior executives, he added.
“The Fiji Directors Course provides a unique opportunity for directors to learn current issues affecting governance and directorship.
“It also provides outstanding opportunities to network with peers from a wide variety of industries and sectors.”
The Australian Institute of Company Directors Fiji Directors Course is designed to provide directors with a comprehensive understanding of their duties and responsibilities.
Also it provides to them the necessary skills and knowledge to successfully govern their organisations.
The courses are being especially developed and facilitated by directors for directors.
It will be conducted over three days at the Holiday Inn, Suva from March 24 to March 26 at cost of $3450 (VIP). Mr Fareed can also be contacted for further details on 330 5017/999 541.
