NEW IPGA Webinars: More learning about Policy GovernanceŽ 
 
IPGA provides resources for owners in an effort to encourage and enhance the use of Policy GovernanceŽ on a global stage.  Newsletters and written testimonials are great, but what's better than getting the information directly from the source?  
 
The monthly IPGA webinars are targeted to practitioners using the Policy GovernanceŽ model of board management.   Presented by Carver Governance Academy trained consultants, and in some cases the Authoritative Source themselves, these sessions are specifically designed to provide information and suggestions for Board members, Chief Governance Officers and Chief Executive Officers.

To Consultants: Make your practice reach further
  • Create stronger outreach to practitioner owners, members and nonmembers
  • Promote the correct use of the model 
  • Illustrate examples of model consistency and model interpretations
The fee structure is designed to make the sessions widely accessible, to promote membership and to provide additional support of IPGA and the Policy GovernanceŽ model of management.  We will begin promoting these sessions through email, on the internet and a widely distributed press release to the global media.  Weekly sessions will be marketed individually by IPGA promoting you, your business and your presentation.
 
We are currently seeking proposals for presenting during these webinars.  In order to participate as a presenter in this program, you must be a full, current member of IPGA.  A PowerPoint presentation is required.  In addition to or as an alternative, you may provide an essay highlighting the presentation in an effort to preserve resources.
