Sydney-based Global Governance Initiative (GGI) has taken out Silver in the annual LearnX Live Awards for its new online governance training suite, coming in ahead of tight competition from across the globe.
GGI’s Founder and Managing Director Brad Sherringham said, “We spent two years researching, designing and writing the six courses in our suite. The priority was ensuring our content and format was really engaging so that governance could be accessible, practical and easy for people to ‘do’.”

Once upon a time, ‘what’ organisations did or achieved was the focus, but it’s no longer enough. The community, customers, employees and regulators are now asking ‘how’ business is being conducted and they expect that the behaviour of directors and executives holds up to scrutiny.

Global Governance Initiative (GGI) recently entered the tightly held governance education market and, with a determined focus on removing barriers to entry, is offering practical and accessible online governance training for current and aspiring directors and executives.
