Build your governance skills and confidence, make connections and learn how boards operate.

The Institute of Directors' (IoD) development programmes help emerging and experienced directors build their governance skills and confidence, make connections and learn how boards operate.

We work with mentors and host boards across all sectors who are committed to supporting talent and capability for individuals, for their own board and for the governance profession.

Our current development programmes are listed below. For more information about our development programmes go to: https://www.iod.org.nz/membership/development-programmes
