What is the Symposium?
Now in its fourth year, the Ernst & Young Women on Board Corporate Governance Symposium is a distinct learning experience that aligns world-class insight from the University of Alberta's School of Business, industry speakers and guest panelists discussing their board experiences.

Today's Director must stay up-to-date and have extensive knowledge to monitor and advise with confidence.  The symposium covers a wide range of topics from board functionality and strategy to financial reporting, accountabilty and managing risk.

Topics Covered:
    • Board Strategy, Function and Composition
    • Financial Reporting & Auditing
    • Risk & Liability
    • Principles of Effective Corporate Governance
    • Board Ethics
    • Director Development



Who will benefit from this opportunity?
T
he current reality is that only 12% of board positions among FP500 companies are held by female executives and 47.2% of FP500 companies have no women on their boards.

Women on Board is a corporate governance symposium developed specifically for high-level female executives who are seeking board appointments or have just received their first directorship appointment.

Ernst & Young Women on Board Corporate Goverenance Symposium reflects a community of like-minded female professionals and here's what past attendees had to say about Women on Board:

"An innovative and completely refreshing initiative."

"Great content overall.  Excellent mix of academic and real-life content."

"Excellent opportunity to connect with other women. Thank you!"

If you are a senior female executive or professional that wishes to master the fundamentals of corporate governance and broaden your base of business contacts to secure a corporate board appointment, Ernst & Young Women on Board will help you reach your goals.
