User Feedback:
"This course was highly developed and interesting. Being someone with very little knowledge of board governance, this course helped me understand and developed my conceptualization of being a board member. Now that I have the tools and expectation of being on a board, I am ready to pursue my endeavours."
--Genither, MA Candidate
"The “Boards That Work” course was ... very valuable. The information is helpful for new agencies as well as organizations that may be reviewing their current practices. It contains helpful information for orientation for new board members as well."
