*Since it is mainly targeted at high potential employees and mid-level managers, introducingthis courseto currently-serving directors need imply that you think that their own skills are insufficient. Rather, the suggestion would be that since that person's company is serious about both its HR development program and corporate governance, they may be interested to know about this low-cost option. (Which atonly 30,000 or less per person, contains fully nine hours of instruction if one takes all sections of the course. )
