"We have been thrilled by the quality of directors coming through our program via our relationship with the IFC and their global portfolio of Nominee Directors," said David R. Koenig, President and Chief Executive Officer of the DCRO Institute. “Tayyeb came to our program through that relationship, and we are thrilled to welcome him as the first in Pakistan to be awarded our recognition," he continued.

The Certificate in Risk Governance® is awarded to those who have completed The Board Members' Course on Risk® - an intensive 17-course education program and evaluation. The curriculum is designed for current and aspiring board members who seek to advance the governance of risk-taking at their organizations and those who interact with boards. Taught by some of the world's leading figures in risk governance, the program features lessons by nearly 50 board members, c-level executives, and well-known authors from five continents. No course on risk for board members as robust as this - depth, practicality, and global expertise - exists anywhere else.

"I found the course extremely useful, and there was a tremendous learning experience; I would highly encourage my colleagues enrolled in the course to complete it,” said Mr. Afzal. “My congratulations to the DCRO Institute for designing the excellent program,” he continued.
