Welcome at Governance University
Welcome at Governance University (GU), one of the largest and most international boards & governance training institutes of the Netherlands. Established in 2005, we provide a growing number of courses for governance professionals.

Our mission is to support organisations and business sectors (for-profit as well as not-for-profit) in professionalising their corporate governance and board effectiveness.

GU aims at knowledge development of board members and enablers (like company secretaries or professional shareholders) by means of publications and professional governance courses.

We collaborate with leaders in governance, such as experienced board members of large corporations and not-for-profit organisations, international (non)executive training institutes and universities and professors throughout the globe.

Our oversight board is called Curatorium. The Curatorium monitors the quality of our programmes and consists solely professional directors and professors with extensive experience in corporate governance.
