New trustees, in particular, must quickly gain an understanding of the basic principles of trust fund management as well as an awareness of knowing where to go in order to make informed decisions. Now you have a solid starting point—the Foundations of Trust Management Standards (FTMS) program. Recently debuted, this 2½-day, assessment-based certificate is the first International Foundation program in Canada to offer trustees an opportunity to validate their learning.

The ATMS Quality Series features annually rotating topics to meet the current needs of advanced-level trustees who have earned an ATMS certificate. These “drill-down” programs provide a day of intensive, focused instruction and discussion.
