Course description
Company Secretarial Practice for PLCs
This intensive governance course, delivered by experts, covers the essential knowledge and activities of the successful company secretary in a PLC.
Good governance drives better decision making, unlocks business growth, reduces risk, and ensures organisations are fit for the future. Bad governance increases the risk of reputational damage, financial losses, or corporate failure.
The role of the company secretary is critical to the governance system, and it is therefore legally required that all publicly listed companies have a company secretary.
UK law places unique demands on PLCs and the teams that manage them. This intensive course, delivered by experts, covers the essential knowledge and activities of the successful company secretary or governance professional in a PLC.
