IMI Diploma in Governance and Compliance Forging a culture of integrity and compliance with organisational values
Participant Testimonials I found the IMI Diploma both engaging and practical. The support and encouragement I received from both the lecturers and the IMI enabled me to better understand the concepts of compliance management: to put them into practice and appreciate the importance of compliance in modern business activities. The lectures and class interaction allow IMI Diploma participants to develop an understanding of compliance which is now seen as a core value that is critical to all companies. Conor Hanlon, Security Director Pfizer The IMI Diploma provided me with in-depth knowledge in this new and emerging area of business. The programme equipped me with a comprehensive set of tools and models to review and apply compliance within my work setting. The course participants from a diverse range of sectors also shared their daily compliance challenges in today s dynamic business environment. Maria McKeown, Auditor, Excellence The National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) The models and concepts learned within this IMI Diploma have allowed me to take a more holistic view of the compliance function within my department. By doing so it has helped identify and target areas for improvement beyond compliance. The different modules were presented in an easy to follow format. This combined with lively classroom discussion with participants from diverse backgrounds all contributed to a positive learning experience. Overall this IMI Diploma was extremely helpful for embedding the compliance function into day-to-day decisions and would recommend it to others wishing to do the same. Dennis E. Quigley, Chief Chemist The Lisheen Mine (Member of Vedanta Resources plc.)
