The Director Certification Program (DCP) is the country’s first-ever formal director training program with certification. The Program is part of the Myanmar Institute of Directors’ Learning Series and content is developed by Singapore Management University’s well-known Executive Program with MIoD as its local partner, where we aim to deliver executive training to a network of public and private sector leaders in Myanmar.

This unique 3 full days in-person program is set within an Asian business context and provides a well-rounded board-level view of key strategies and focal issues facing many companies in Myanmar.

This Program reviews the Myanmar Companies Law in the context of Directors’ roles and responsibilities including the regulatory requirements that Directors are required to follow as prescribed by the law. Per MCL, the Director’s liability is a very new concept in Myanmar, and the participants will hear about how to mitigate this.

Review of key challenges Myanmar companies are facing today while implementing a strong corporate governance structure in place to attract more foreign direct investment into Myanmar. The participants will also look at family governance especially succession planning by reviewing case studies of well-known families in Asia.

Directors also need to understand the story behind the numbers, financial statement analysis, and benchmarking of key financial indicators and ratios which are critical in understanding the financial health of companies, as well as a review of well- known financial frauds and the lessons that Directors can learn from these past case studies.

This course will be very interactive with reviews of many case studies around Asian countries to enforce key learning points and engagement with fellow participants and trainers through work examples to upskill and equip the Directors of Myanmar companies with knowledge and ability to lead in the ever-changing times of Myanmar business landscape.
