Program Overview: A board-level programme built around judgement, oversight and
integrity
The Advanced Professional Certificate in Board Governance, Anti-Corruption & Integrity Leadership is a senior executive programme designed for board members, directors, trustees, commissioners, regulators and C-suite executives responsible for governance, institutional accountability, risk, compliance, financial oversight and organisational integrity.
The programme has been structured against leading European, United States and international governance, anti-corruption, compliance, risk-management and internal-control principles.
The international framework draws particularly on:
- G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance
- OECD Anti-Bribery Convention and 2021 Anti-Bribery Recommendation
- UK Corporate Governance Code 2024
- U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC corporate-governance requirements
- COSO Internal Control—Integrated Framework
- COSO Enterprise Risk Management Framework
- COSO/ACFE Fraud Risk Management Guide
- ISO 37001:2025 Anti-Bribery Management Systems
- ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management Systems
- UN Convention against Corruption principles
- World Bank Integrity Compliance Guidelines
- International principles relating to beneficial ownership, financial crime, whistleblowing, investigations, procurement integrity and institutional accountability.
The programme therefore provides a cross-jurisdictional board-governance perspective, enabling participants to understand governance expectations across European, American, African, Asian and international institutional environments.
The G20/OECD Principles emphasise that boards should act on an informed basis, exercise due care and loyalty, oversee risk, maintain integrity of accounting and reporting systems, and ensure appropriate control systems. (OECD) The UK Corporate Governance Code 2024 places particular emphasis on board leadership, division of responsibilities, audit, risk and internal control, including board monitoring of material controls. (FRC (Financial Reporting Council)) The U.S. framework provides strong emphasis on audit-committee independence, financial expertise, financial reporting, internal controls and executive ethics. (SEC) COSO provides internationally influential frameworks for internal control, enterprise risk management and fraud deterrence. (COSO)
ISO 37001:2025 provides the current international anti-bribery management-system benchmark for preventing, detecting and responding to bribery across public, private and not-for-profit organisations. (ISO). Download Brochure
