Professional Certification Courses in Corporate Social
Responsibility
Corporate governance, business ethics and corporate social
responsibility are areas of rapidly growing importance in which the
GEGN has a leading research position particularly in the way it
applies to emerging market organisations. Our programmes are
designed for those wishing to better understand the complex and
dynamic relationships between organisations and their stakeholders.
The role of governance is to set out the rules within which an
organisation must operate - and to ensure those rules are observed.
Its focus is on a range of issues concerning the proper management
of organisations. Corporate governance is thus central to the
evolution of strategy and policy - and hence, effective management.
Since
many GEGN certification participants and students are working, our
professional certification courses brings together those with
relevant experience and an interest in developing further
professionally. One leading course in this direction is a jointly
run programme between GEGN and Green Earth Alliance. This is a
unique Professional Certification course in Corporate Social
Responsibility, known as CSR PRO This course is relevant to
directors and non-executive board members, managers, consultants and
those interested in governance, corporate social responsibility and
ethics in the private, public and voluntary sectors.
