The Corporate Governance component of the program covers the principles and best practices that ensure transparency, accountability, and member participation in decision-making. It explores topics such as board structures, leadership roles, regulatory compliance, and creating policies that align with the cooperative’s mission and values. Effective governance is critical for fostering trust, driving performance, and upholding the cooperative’s commitment to social and environmental responsibility.

The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) aspect of the program focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks across all areas of a cooperative’s operations.
