About this programme

The Certified Bank Director programme is a unique, specialist governance programme, designed specifically for Bank Directors (executive and non-executive) or those operating at executive committee level.

The programme will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the unique governance issues associated with banks arising from the inherent complexity of banking business models and their risk profile. It will provide a practical understanding of the duties and responsibilities of directors and the behaviours required from them and from well-functioning boards. While strongly rooted in academic research, theory and regulation, the programme is designed to provide practical knowledge and application.

It is an intensive 10 day programme completed in two separate blocks of five days duration each.

How will you benefit

On completion of the Certified Bank Director Programme, candidates will;

  • Understand the essence of a bank, the banking system, the lessons from the banking crisis, and the likely future development of banking post-crisis

  • Appreciate the implications of recent regulatory changes and the legal, regulatory and governance framework relevant to board directors

  • Comprehend the unique risk profile of banking models, including the systematic and systemic implications of risk-related policies in the context of strategy and the relationship between risk appetite, profitability and stakeholder maximisation

  • Appreciate the importance of the internal governance processes and the application of best practice

  • Understand the changing nature of investor engagement and the implications for the work of the board

  • Understand the behaviours required from well-functioning boards and the expectations and requirements of individual directors

Award

On successful completion of this programme, candidates will earn the professional designation of Certified Bank Director from the IOB.

Certified Bank Directors commit to developing and maintaining the level of professional competence relevant to their positions. IOB offers Certified Bank Directors a comprehensive lifelong learning programme including monthly Certified Bank Director Radar and an annual seminar to bring the network together and to fulfil their CPD requirements.

Assessment

There will be an assessment attached to each block to ensure that the learning outcomes associated with each block have been achieved.

The assessment will take the form of a Learning Journal recorded by programme participants during and on completion of each block. Learning Journals are used extensively in executive education programmes. The content of the Learning Journal will be evaluated and graded by the Programme Director to assess the participant’s knowledge, synthesis, analysis and development.

The Certified Bank Director programme is targeted at executive and non-executive directors of the main and subsidiary boards of banks, new and emerging banks and senior individuals who interact with the banking system.

It will be highly beneficial, not only to individuals new to the roles and responsibilities of being a bank director, but also to experienced bank directors operating in a significantly changed regulatory landscape.

This programme is also targeted at senior managers aspiring to be bank executive directors and/ or identified as potential future executive directors within their organisation.

For further information on the Certified Bank Director programme and/or to speak with the Academic Director, please contact the Relationship Manager, Kate Walsh at [email protected]
