The Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators of Nigeria (ICSAN), Edo/Delta Chapter, has once again demonstrated its commitment to professional excellence by hosting a highly impactful virtual training titled “Revolutionizing Corporate Report Writing: Harnessing AI for Secretaries and Administrators.”
The webinar, held recently, attracted a diverse group of corporate professionals eager to explore how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming corporate governance, administrative efficiency, and the future of report writing.
In her opening remarks, Mrs. Funmi Ekundayo, FCIS, President and Chairman of the ICSAN Governing Council, emphasized the relevance of AI across disciplines, urging Chartered Secretaries not to be left behind.
