2010 Directors' Academy
The 8th Annual Directors' Academy will be held on June 4, 2010.
Details and Schedule to follow.
The Berle Center Directors' Academy is the premier executive program for directors and senior executives. In its eighth year, the Risk Metrics (ISS) accredited curriculum is designed specifically for corporate directors and senior executives.
The principle focus of the Academy is to discuss how boards can help their companies, both private and public, succeed. Now more than ever, boards must have the right directors in place and each director must understand both the overall role played by the Board, as well as each director's particular responsibility. Accordingly, the 2010 Directors' Academy provides a comprehensive program of practical education.

Academy Advisory Board
The Directors' Academy is the Pacific Northwest's premier full-day educational program for directors of public and private companies. The principal focus of the Academy in 2009 will be to discuss how boards can help their organizations succeed, particularly in a challenging economic environment. How boards deal with this challenge is a function of leadership, core values, vision, strategic planning and focus. A distinguished group of panelists, including several of the region's most prominent directors and executives, will share their perspectives, provoke thought, and provide practical advice on how boards can add value to their companies and management.
In its seventh year, the Risk Metrics (ISS) accredited curriculum provides practical instruction on how boards help their companies succeed.
Risk Metrics (ISS) Accreditation: Directors' Academy is a Risk Metrics (ISS) "accredited" Boardroom Education Program. Boards composed of directors that have participated in the Directors' Academy will receive an upward adjustment of the Corporate Governance Quotient (CGQ) as determined by Risk Metrics (ISS).
