The importance of board training has been brought to light, with several company directors having been brought to task under the Companies Act for governance issues in recent months. Their wrongdoings range from minor offences such as not holding regular annual general meetings or not filing annual returns on time, to more serious ones like dereliction of duty, cheating and fraud.

As part of efforts to equip directors with essential skills needed in their roles, the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA), launched its Board Of Directors Masterclass Programme in February this year. 

On this episode of Advancing Accountancy, we hear more about the training programme from Zoey Xie, Acting Managing Director at the ISCA Academy.
