THE CHARTERED DIRECTOR DESIGNATION

Key Steps to Becoming a Chartered Director

Granting of the "Chartered Director" designation is a primary focus of the Directors College. (Participants will however, also have the option of pursuing professional development opportunities that do not lead to designation.)

Key steps to becoming a Chartered Director* include:

  1. Registration as a Chartered Director* candidate
     
  2. Successfully completing the five modules that make up The Directors College curriculum
    (Note: attendance for all sessions of all five modules is mandatory)

     
  3. Passing the Chartered Directors* Program Examination
     
  4. Subscribing to The Directors College* Code of Conduct
     
  5. Committing to undertake Continuing Professional Development
     
  6. Being admitted as a Chartered Director*

For those Chartered Directors who complete the College's continuing education and practical experience requirements for a period of five consecutive years (after being awarded their C. Dir. designation), they will be allowed to petition for a second tier certification allowing them to also use the designation "P. Dir."(*) after their names.
