“I’m thrilled to welcome someone of Alphonse’s stature as the first to earn the Certificate in Risk Governance in the Congo (DRC),” said David R.

The Certificate in Risk Governance^® is awarded to those who have completed The Board Members’ Course on Risk^® – an intensive 17-course education program and evaluation. The curriculum is designed for current and aspiring board members who seek to advance the governance of risk-taking at their organizations and those who interact with boards. Taught by some of the world’s leading figures in risk governance, the program features lessons by nearly 50 board members, C-level executives, and well-known authors from five continents. No course on risk for board members as robust as this – depth, practicality, and global expertise – exists anywhere else.

“Excellent training and refreshing courses aiming at elevating board of directors leadership, performance, and value-added in the complex, competitive, and challenging world environment,” said Mr. Ngana. “It has further deepened my board practical knowledge and experiences in risk governance in the dynamic social, economic, and environmental arenas. Looking at risk in the context of unlocking the value creation for shareholders and stakeholders is key!” he continued.
