Professional directors need to upgrade their
knowledge to prepare for appointment as a director. Newly appointed directors require guidance and training. Long-serving directors need to continually improve their
director skills and keep up to date with all issues affecting
their ability to fulfill their role.
HKIoD's development services and products are created by
directors for directors. They include:-
- Training seminars covering a wide range of subjects such
as:-
- The Role of Company Director I: Legal & Regulatory
Framework
- The Role of Company Director II: Board Practices
- Independent Non-Executive Directors: Role and Fulfillment
- Risk Management
- Finance for Directors
- Internal Control
- Strategic Assessment of Business Models
Attending these training courses leads to a Certificate, Diploma or Professional Diploma, as
appropriate. The Professional Diploma further
initiates the path to post-graduate degree programmes
offered by allied universities.
Among the training venues, The HKIoD
Training Centre is situated in the Central District
which is easily accessible by various means of
transportation.
- Directors' conferences with world-class leaders to share
their experiences in company direction.
- Professional talks including expert analyses and
presentations on director practices.
- Publication of practical guidelines for directors.
- Regular magazines, e-newsletters, study reports,
position briefs, etc, to provide timely information on
director practices.

| Standards & Professionalism |
|
|
HKIoD is committed to enhancing corporate governance standards.
Our strategic programmes aim to serve both members and the
community at large.
In line with international trend, HKIoD has developed a Membership Accreditation Scheme to mandate, encourage and
facilitate members to upgrade their knowledge. The Scheme
invokes collective action with self discipline whereby HKIoD
members are required to uphold a Code of Conduct and engage in
the practice of Continuing Professional Development.
To assist companies, policy makers and the public to identify
ways to improve corporate governance policies, HKIoD organises
the compilation of the Corporate Governance Scorecard regularly to assess the corporate governance practices of major
companies listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong.
To recognise outstanding directors for excellence in corporate
governance practices and to promote good corporate governance
among the public, HKIoD's annual project of Directors Of The
Year Awards continually generates community-wide impact and
presents role models for benchmarking.
