Don't miss out on the opportunity to be part of the largest gathering of governance experts in Ireland.

We headed west for our first CPD event of the year. Thaks so much to Anna Holland and her colleagues in FCS Corporate Services for being such wonderful hosts. An excellent informative evening with some very useful networking included.
Training
We have some excellent in person training events on Minute taking in May and September and an Introduction to the Role of the Company Secretary later this year in October.
