The Corporate Governance Institute Partnership Programme helps organisations expand their training or education portfolio with corporate governance, ESG and boardroom-focused learning.

Depending on the agreed model, partners can introduce learners, resell TCGI programmes, or deliver certifications through an instructor-led format supported by TCGI.

The partnership programme is designed for organisations that want to offer governance education to their own audiences.

This may include education providers, professional bodies, consultancies, training companies, membership organisations, regional partners, universities, leadership development providers and organisations serving directors, executives, governance professionals, ESG leaders or company secretaries.

Partnering with The Corporate Governance Institute can help your organisation add trusted governance education to your portfolio, respond to growing demand for boardroom and ESG capability, and give your audience access to learning developed with governance experts.

Partners can also benefit from onboarding, partner management, marketing support and access to partner resources, depending on the partnership model agreed.

The Corporate Governance Institute offers three main partnership models: an Introducer model, a Reseller model and an Instructor-led model. The Introducer model is suited to partners who want to market TCGI programmes and pass suitable leads to the TCGI team.

The Reseller model is suited to partners who want to sell TCGI offerings more directly. The Instructor-led model is suited to partners who want to deliver certifications in person or virtually, supported by TCGI curriculum, learning resources, exams and certification.

In the Introducer model, your organisation markets relevant TCGI programmes to your audience and passes qualified leads to the TCGI team.

TCGI then supports the learner journey from enquiry through to registration and certification. This model is suited to partners who want to expand their offering without managing the full sales and delivery process themselves.

In the Reseller model, your organisation sells TCGI programmes in your market or territory, with support from TCGI across operations, marketing and sales.

This model is designed for partners who want a more active commercial role in promoting and selling governance education while still benefiting from TCGI learning content, certification and partner support.

In the Instructor-led model, approved partners can deliver TCGI certifications either in person or virtually, supported by TCGI curriculum, learning resources and platform access.

Exams and certification remain supported through TCGI. This model is suitable for organisations that want to combine local or live instruction with TCGI’s structured online learning and certification process.

Yes. The Corporate Governance Institute can discuss bespoke partnership models where a standard Introducer, Reseller or Instructor-led model does not fully match your organisation’s goals.

The best next step is to book a call so the team can understand your audience, market, delivery preferences and commercial objectives before recommending the right structure.

TCGI partners can receive onboarding support, partner hub access, team training, marketing support, sales support, partner success management and ongoing guidance to help grow the partnership.

Support may also include co-branded resources, information sessions, lead distribution, monthly reporting and local promotional activity where applicable, depending on the agreed partnership model.

Partner onboarding is designed to help your organisation get started quickly with the right information, resources and support. After the partnership model is agreed, TCGI can support team training, access to partner resources, operational setup, sales enablement and marketing activation. Exact onboarding steps depend on the model, territory and delivery approach agreed.

Yes. TCGI partners can receive sales and marketing support, including partner hub resources, marketing training, co-branded resources and sales support.

Depending on the partnership model, support may also include information sessions, lead distribution, monthly reporting, local webinars and PR support where applicable.

Yes, regional promotion can be part of a TCGI partnership, depending on the model and territory agreed. The live partnership options include introducer, reseller and instructor-led approaches, which can support organisations that want to bring governance education to their own market or audience. Territory, promotion rights and commercial terms should be confirmed during the partnership discussion.

The learner journey depends on the partnership model agreed. In the Introducer model, TCGI supports the delegate customer journey from engagement through to registration and certification.

In the Instructor-led model, partners may deliver the learning experience in person or virtually, while exams and certification remain supported through TCGI. The exact operational split should be confirmed during onboarding.

Yes, the Instructor-led partnership model can support delivery either in person or virtually, with online learning support on the TCGI platform.

This creates a blended delivery model where partners can add live instruction while delegates continue to benefit from structured online learning resources, exams and certification support through TCGI.

The exact courses and certifications available to a partner depend on the agreed partnership model and commercial arrangement. The partnership page positions TCGI around corporate governance, ESG and company secretary certifications, and the wider TCGI catalogue includes governance courses at different levels.

Any partner-facing course list should be confirmed during the partnership discussion before being published or promoted.

The first step is to get in touch with The Corporate Governance Institute to discuss your organisation, audience, market and goals.

The partnership team can then recommend the most suitable model, whether that is an Introducer, Reseller, Instructor-led or bespoke partnership structure. You can start by booking a call or downloading the partnership brochure from the Partnership page.
