Discovery’s Board of Governance
Our Duties and Obligations
Apart from fulfilling the legal obligations of Discovery, the Board of Governance bears the responsibility and is answerable for overseeing the educational performance of all apprenticeship programmes provided by Discovery, as well as for the well-being of our learners.
In addition to their operational tasks, the board plays a crucial role in ensuring that the business leaders have a clear understanding of the vision and strategy for learning within the organisation.
The Board holds leaders accountable for the excellence of education and training, and actively contributes to ensuring that continuous and sustainable improvement remains a top priority in decision-making processes.
