Training CDs

The Global Corporate Governance Forum Training CDs contained interviews on key issues with international experts. Leading practitioners across different regions discuss how governance is critical for corporations everywhere. The CDs, produced in partnership with the Corporate Governance program of the World Bank Institute, include renowned international experts such as, Sir Adrian Cadbury, Jesus Estanislao, Karugor Gatamah, Mary Keegan, and Ira Millstein. They address critical topics such as the importance of effective governance, the role of the board, accounting convergence, and codes of best practice.

Note: Due to the overwhelming response to the Training CDs, the Forum has decided to add several new features to the Training CDs. The new CDs should be available for dissemination by Fall 2007. The Forum will post an announcement when the CDs are ready and would welcome your requests via email at cgsecretariat@ifc.org.
