Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need board experience?

What certificate do I receive?
A co-branded HEC Paris, Doha and Alfaisal University certificate of completion, subject to the applicable attendance and completion requirements. The final requirements will accompany the enrollment information.
Can my organization run a private cohort?
Contact the CGC team to discuss a private cohort for your board or executive team. Program scope, customization, dates and fees would be agreed separately.
Does registering interest commit me to paying or attending?
It depends on the track. Registering for Program 1 creates a binding liability, whereas registering interest for Programs 2 and 3 simply allows the CGC team to share dates, fees, and application details without reserving a spot, confirming admission, or creating any payment commitment.
Do I need to complete the programs in order?
No. The programs run independently. Choose the one that fits your experience and objectives, or ask the CGC team for guidance.
What degree of English proficiency is required to participate?
Because all instruction and discussions are conducted in English, you need to be comfortable reading course materials and actively participating in group discussions in English.
Is personal coaching included with the Advanced program?
Personal coaching is currently a proposed option; its inclusion and any associated fees will be finalized and confirmed in the specific cohort information.
