The Corporate Governance Institute Reviews 

The level of Support given to me as I missed the deadlines was so encouraging: I have sought an extension on my ESG Diploma and awaiting it's process but Its worthy of mention, the invaluable Course content materials and resources is a huge wealth of guide to making me a Thought Leader in this Globally relative Subject matter!! I however, should mention that a bit more Audio visuals could please be applied in delivery of course contents( in Podcasts, videos etc) as this will broaden accessibility that caters for the diverse needs of Students. Overall, I recommend the ESG Dip as a go-to.

The contents were well researched and explained. The presentation outline is very good. I was able to understand within a short time, standards that once looked very abstract.

This is a five-star course. I enjoyed the opportunity to consolidate my knowledge and the learning experience. But, because little things also count there are allways opportunities to improve. Sometimes, the links provided didn’t work (resulting in messages such as "page not found"). Also here and there are formatting issues (Numbering of items and paragrphs) that could lead to confusion, such as in Module 6 (step-by-step guide to developing an effective strategic plan) were it is mentioned that there are 7 steps when in fact they are 8. Other then that I like the practicality (without minimizing the academic quality). I enjoyed the up-to-date examples and the full set of videos and resources made available to me. Thank you for the privilege. Ana Major

Where do I start? The CGI Diploma in ESG is so well thought out and slick! It is extremely well structured and self-paced. A very structured course with precision and a good way of explaining the content.

The online course, which is excellently maintained led me to my flawless learning and assessment within 6 weeks!

ESG is a must for the future, and I highly recommend undertaking this diploma from The Corporate Governance Institute. The digital content is excellent, with clear explanations and links to valuable resources.

I have also enrolled to be a Premium Member within the CGI and, of course, recommend this course to anyone wanting to follow this path.

Big shout out to Stephen @ the CGI!!!!

I can really recommend the Corporate Governance Institute!

Excellent programme, modules delivered by experienced speaker followed by excellent presentations to support learning and assessment. I would recommend this programme for anyone working at director level and above and for anyone thinking of NED roles

I'd recommend this course. The content was very up to date and relevant. The self-paced nature of the course coupled with ample time to check on learnings were also very beneficial.

Completing this program marks a significant milestone in my journey toward becoming a leader in corporate governance. I have gained invaluable insights into governance architecture, board dynamics, and strategic decision-making, all of which will empower me to shape the future of organisations with confidence and integrity

Experienced lecturers, good material and covered all aspects of corporate governance. 10 weeks was perfect length to cover the course. Nice to link up with members on my cohort!

Great format, easy to manage around workload. Really good tutors and all the materials and case studies were practical and well presented

"ESG is a must for the future, and I highly recommend undertaking this diploma from The Corporate Governance Institute. The digital content is excellent, with clear explanations and links to valuable resources. The only thing missing for me is the option for more audio versions, which would allow me to listen to the content as well as read it. After a long day at work, I sometimes found it hard to stay focused on reading."

Mixture of learning styles; reinforcements; ease of use

Very structured course with precision and good way of explanations. The role of CGI website that is excellently maintained lead me to flawless learning and assessment.

Excellent course in which there's excellent application of theory into practices through the presentation of industry's best practices!

Everything is structured with CGI. Content was precise and fruitful. Some links for examples were not opening.
The General comment is, very satisfying course.

Very comprehensive, well researched and fantastic content - well aligned to the industry standards. Would highly recommend The Corporate Governance Institute.

The diploma establishes a foundation of different aspects behind ESG development, providing an option to achieve knowledge confidence regarding the field's background. The platform is user-friendly for navigation. Another good thing was the customer and studies support, with relatively fast answers and encouragement.

Room for improvement include the fact that the content was outdated by some few years (which is critical in a fast-paced environment), and the fact that it is purely theoretical. I could not say that it provides hands-on experience with e.g. analyses and reports, nor that it really solves a skill gap in the way that it would had been desired. Provided in formation is often relevant, but rather generally described and pointed out to online resources. The expert interviews can be insightful, yet quite generalist and potentially staged/scripted (at least from the interviewer's end). I could not say that, after having completed the course with distinction, I feel extremely confident about being operational with a competetitve analytical advange in terms of ESG.

I'd recommend this course to someone without previous ESG knowledge looking for a theoretical foundation.

This was an excellent and very informative course. Each topic had a different expert weekly. Their industry and academic experience offered great insight into corporate governance. It also kept people interested and there was brilliant interaction between the trainers and people between different industries receiving the course.

I completed this Diploma with flying colours. How? The course used a number of methods of learning, including a case study that ran through the course, videos, text, and quizzes. The content was very visual. The opportunity to do a sample exam was very useful. I learnt a lot, which I have taken into practice. Now I need to find a board who wants me.
