Certification Community Group

Thinking about attaining your Directorship Certification?
Introducing the NACD Minnesota Chapter Certification Community Group

As the leading director credential in the United States, the NACD Certification Program® provides rigorous governance content, comprehensive preparation, and a credentialing exam to ensure you possess the core competencies required of an effective board professional.

If you are interested in NACD Directorship Certification® or are in pursuit of the credential now, consider joining the 2026 NACD Minnesota Chapter Certification Community Group (CCG) to prepare for the exam with your fellow peers.

The CCG is a four-week, virtual program that will take place on four consecutive Fridays (September 11, September 19, September 26, and October 3). The sessions will start at 8:00 AM CT and will run 75-90 minutes.

Hosted in partnership with NACD, the content is based on the NACD Directorship Certification® program. These sessions will be led by two directors in our market who were among the first to pass the NACD Directorship Certification® and who have been involved in helping to refine the certification program over the years, John Bergstrom and Beth Simermeyer.
