Questions about the Governance path

Is each course HRD Corp (HRDF) claimable?

Yes. Each course is an HRD Corp Claimable Course (SBL-KHAS) for HRD Corp registered employers.

How many courses are in the path?

Thirteen courses: 24 training days in all. Seven courses are for the governance role and six are in the two common areas. Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption (BG-ABAC) is one day; Managing Employee Work Stress at the Workplace (BL-MWS) is one day; the other courses are two days each. Not every person takes every course.
