  • Introduction

    The dawn of 21st century coincided with the Enron scandal, and produced far reaching ripples in the commercial arena. Subsequent sufacing of Worldcom and Omnimedia scandals further shook the belief in compliance robustness of capitalistic institutions of the developed economies. New efforts evolved globally to strengthen the “Governance Processes” in the post Enron commercial world.

    Pakistan was among the nations to introduce formal corporate governance compliances at an early stage. The listed companies and public sector companies are subject to Corporate Governance oversight; and not-for-profit institutions will soon follow. Directors of listed companies and public sector companies are required to secure formal certification in the form of Directors’ Training Program (DTP). The Director Training Program offered by Center for Executive Education (CEE), IBA, Karachi, is an approved by the Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP).

    Certain industries have specific regulatory and knowledge requirements. This program provides guidance on targeted areas to ensure that Directors of listed companies with specific requirements remain up to date.

    Boardroom best practice is constantly evolving. This program is extensively prepared by subject matter experts and is designed to keep Directors of listed companies abreast of leading trends and practices that promote good governance, protect competitive advantages and prepare for regulatory change.

    The program consists of two modules covering the essential regulatory knowledge requirements and broad subject matter awareness expected of Directors of listed companies with local and global best practices.
