Co-operative Governance

Welcome to CCA's Co-operative Governance site (www.governance.coop).

This site contains the latest research, best practices and lessons learned on issues related to co-operative governance and leadership.

Through this site you can access our e-newsletter, Governance Matters, our e-toolkits, and a number of additional resources. In addition, the Institute of Co-operative Studies provides a forum to discuss governance issues.

Towards Excellence: National Report on Credit Union &
Co-operative Governance Practices

CCA is pleased to announce that it is partnering with Brown Governance to conduct the second national governance survey. Towards Excellence: National Report on Credit Union & Co-operative Governance Practices 2007, will examine such areas as:

  • board selection practices
  • board and committee composition
  • director terms and tenure
  • board and committee compensation
  • board responsibilities
  • board and director evaluations
  • director education
  • board reporting and measurement practices
  • member and stakeholder relation practices

Data on corporate sector practices will also be included, allowing co-operatives to see how their governance practices either lead or lag the corporate sector.
