Talk by MAICSA Nurturing Future Governance Experts

The event saw the attendance of over 70 participants

On 8 August 2024, The Malaysian Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (MAICSA) delivered a career talk to UTAR Bachelor of International Business students at UTAR Sungai Long Campus. The talk aimed to highlight career opportunities for company secretaries and governance professionals, emphasising the importance of the Chartered Governance Qualifying Programme (CGQP) in the professional field.

The MAICSA team was represented by Pn Rohani Aziz, Pn Intan Nabila, and Pn Sharifah Raihan Al Idrus. They offered a comprehensive overview of the CGQP, which serves as a fast-track option for those with Institute-recognised bachelor’s and master’s degrees to complete the Chartered Governance Institute’s (CGI) qualifying programme and become CGI members. The presentation covered the programme’s structure, career prospects, and fees, outlining various entry levels—Level 1 or 2—tailored to three categories of applicants: Related Degree holders, Non-Related Degree holders, and those on the Fast Track Professional route.

Attended by over 70 final-year students from the Bachelor of International Business (Honours) and Bachelor of Economics (Global Economics) (Honours) programmes, the talk sparked great interest and engagement among participants. The participants were enthusiastic about exploring careers as chartered company secretaries and governance professionals, recognising the crucial role these professionals play in the corporate world.

The session concluded with an engaging Q&A session where participants interacted with the representatives from MAICSA, exploring details of the CGQP and discussing the benefits of pursuing a career in governance. The event not only provided students with valuable insights into the governance profession but also equipped them with the knowledge and motivation to pursue excellence in their future careers.
