Good corporate governance is critical for good business and it is the role
of management and executives to ensure that it is implemented and adhered to
throughout the company. But things are always changing with new legislation
and guidelines coming into play on a regular basis making it difficult to
remain up to date. To assist with ensuring a full understanding of the
topic, AstroTech is presenting a programme called "Corporate Governance".
The course will run in the Johannesburg area from 7-9 December 2011.

The course will cover key elements of corporate governance, and will include
among other things the following key topics:

* Corporate governance as per the King III Report
* Roles and responsibilities of directors and officers
* Board committees
* Strategic planning and implementation
* Risk management and change management
