Course overview

This meeting management training course is designed to explain the purpose of meeting minutes and provide guidance and practical help to those involved in meeting management and support. 

Minute writing is difficult and time consuming.  Understanding both why minutes are important and how to develop this essential, practical skill is central to the director’s role. Having these skills will save you time and allow you to focus more on the substance of the meeting, rather than the administrative tasks. 

This training course is part of our series of Corporate Strategy Training Courses covering the essential skills and best practices for all Company Directors and Company Secretaries, as well as business leaders and entrepreneurs.
