Great boards don\u2019t just happen, they are built and honed. Governance training is critical to developing a productive and forward-thinking board and ensuring a positive relationship between the board and management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Directors have many duties and responsibilities. Every director has a unique combination of skills, expertise, and blind spots to the board room. The stronger the individual directors are, the stronger the board will be as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This training is designed for new directors from all types and sectors of cooperatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Who should attend: Newly elected directors and directors who have not received formal cooperative board training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Scholarships<\/strong><br>There is a limited number of scholarships available for cooperatives with demonstrated need for financial assistance. <br>Deadline to apply for scholarship is December 10.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UW Center for Cooperatives will be holding their three-part Governance Training Series for New Directors in January and February.
