MANILA, Philippines — A meeting loses its value and wastes time if it is not documented in the correct manner. With the passage of the Revised Corporation Code, there are strict guidelines on how the minutes of meetings should be recorded that must be aligned with SEC regulations.
To help organizations with their compliance, the Center for Global Best Practices will host an SEC-accredited program entitled, “Masterclass in Writing Minutes of Meetings” to be held from 1:30 to 4:45 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, March 9 and 10 via Zoom.
With the current climate of greater accountability of board directors and management in decisions made during meetings, every organization needs trained experts with the right skills to take minutes effectively. This two-session webinar is designed to make your meetings efficient and its outcomes effective through a step-by-step guide from preparing the documentation and its physical requirements of a meeting, to agenda-setting, to using standard terminology in taking down notes and many more!
The learning methodology for this training includes an interactive approach on instructions, discussions, and exercises. It is the only program that will teach you the best practices in taking minutes and provide you vital information on the legal guidelines and regulations on meetings mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
