Who should register?
The Trustee Director Course (TDC1) builds a comprehensive grounding in trustee director duties and obligations, fund operations, risk frameworks, financial statements, investment principles and the workings of the board. It lays the groundwork to ensure that you have the requisite knowledge to undertake a new director role in the superannuation sector. TDC1 will also be of value if you are an executive or a manager needing to understand governance issues in depth.
