NED training empowers new and established non-executive directors to maximise their potential. NEDonBoard explains the benefits of enrolling onto one of our NED training courses.
Continuous professional development (CPD) is a concept that is just as crucial for aspiring and established non-executive directors (NEDs) as it is for graduate new hires. That is because the most effective NEDs are continually evolving, adapting and assimilating knowledge to ensure they are as impactful as they can be for their organisation and discharge their director duties. One of the most effective methods of attaining meaningful CPD opportunities is through NED training courses.
The benefits of non-executive director training
There are numerous advantages to enrolling in structured NED training. Here are just three of the main benefits:
Knowledge
One of the biggest hurdles to becoming a non-executive director isn’t a lack of skills or relevant experience, but often a lack of knowledge regarding the role and its responsibilities. Specialist NED training from NEDonBoard, Institute of Board Members for non-executive directors and board members, provides clarity. Our aim is to demystify the role of a NED and what it takes to become one, empowering candidates with the knowledge they need to succeed.
Authority
Even seasoned non-executive directors can benefit from NED training as it enables non-executives to remain current and informed about changing regulations, best practices, digital transformation and other contemporary boardroom issues. The resources hub provides a wealth of useful insights.
Connection
“It is very important to be part of a network that is looking at best practices and how you do things in the boardroom, to be better at what you do and be more informed,” said Sir James Wates, Chairman of the Wates Group, non-executive director and NEDonBoard member. When you become a member of NEDonBoard you can become more informed, impactful, visible and connected to the thriving NEDonBoard community.
