National Certificate in Governance of Maori Authorities

GOVERNANCE

Oceania Group Ltd (Oceania) delivers quality governance training for directors, trustees, committees, shareholders or beneficiaries. We are an NZQA accredited Private Training Establishment.

What is Governance?

The directors of a company, trustees of a trust or the management committee of an incorporated society are the governors of an organisation. They are there to act in the best interests of the shareholders and the organisation as a whole and good governance is the mechanism that ensures this is happening. Without sound governance practice, serious difficulties can arise.

As a director or trustee you will want to know that you are fulfilling your obligations and doing the best for your shareholders.

As a shareholder you will want to know that the people representing your interests are prudently and effectively managing your interests.

Oceania Group offers unparalleled education and training programmes with excellent facilitators who are knowledgeable and experienced in their fields.

Helped build my understanding of Maori and put in context the meaning of our interaction.

I appreciated that the presentations were able to be interrupted with questions and there were other times to ask ‘random’ questions. I felt like I could ask anything, so that’s great.

I appreciated the welcoming and inclusive style you have. The content of the workshop was ideal – it had sufficient detail to satisfy the brain and the right mix of intuition to ensure attention.
Jeanette Black,
Group Manager, Policy, Environment Waikato.
I found your training approach very informative, positive, interesting and open. It is the first opportunity for a lot of us to be able to ask questions, including some “unpolitically correct” questions, and to have them answered honestly and completely.
