The Egyptian Institute of Directors EIoD offers this professional certificate to focus on how Human resources provide the guidance, labor and expertise that are critical to the success of an institution.  Consequently, it is important that the corporate has to set certain standards for the quality of human resources, and undertake practices to ensure resources meet or exceed those standards.

The responsibility for the governance of human resources rests initially with the board, which must ensure that the organization is being managed by a qualified and competent general manager (or a chief executive officer, or a treasurer, depending upon the credit union). This can be achieved through a thorough recruiting process and an annual review of the general manager's performance.  

The quality and competency of staff must also be managed. This function is normally delegated to the related manager, but should be supervised by the board.
