Is This You?

• Director of a public, private, not-for-profit or governmental organization
  
• Considering becoming a director of such an organization
  
• Unsure of what your duties and responsibilities are
  
• Unclear on how you can perform at your best in your new role
  
• Concerned about the legal ramifications of being a director

The DEAP welcomes experienced and newly appointed directors with management or professional experience. Participants are drawn from a mix of backgrounds including public, Crown and not-for-profit corporations.

English and French brochures are also available for download as PDF files.

What separates DEAP from other directors’ programs? DEAP is a sharply focused program, delivering critical content in a condensed period of time.  It is designed for busy people who want to get what they need in a timely fashion. When you register for DEAP, you will receive material to be read ahead time – one document for each of the modules – in your choice of format:  printed, on CD or downloadable.  The workshop will be three days in duration and will be a mix of presentations, discussions, case studies and a quiz for each module. Upon completion, you will be awarded the Accredited Director designation (Acc.Dir.) and receive membership in our Affiliate Group.  As an Affiliate Group member, you will have a subscription to Corporate Governance Quarterly, our premier publication on good governance practice; access to special rates for seminars, workshops and other continuing professional development opportunities; and the same benefits package extended to our professional members. In addition to our DEAP content partners, Chartered Secretaries Canada has also partnered with the Eastern Caribbean Securities Exchange to offer a variation of DEAP in the Caribbean, as well as with the government to offer DEAP in Nunavut.
