Howard Brod Brownstein, president of The Brownstein Corporation, was named NACD Directorship Certified by the National Association of Corporate Directors. NACD Certified Directors, who earn NACD Directorship Certification, signal to boards, investors and other stakeholders they possess the highest commitment to continuing director education available in the United States.

The NACD Directorship Certification program, a certification for board directors, provides a tangible assessment of a director’s understanding of the essential knowledge required to lead in today’s boardrooms. Certification also facilitates continuous learning and allows directors to showcase their governance knowledge to the companies they serve and to other stakeholders in the broader governance community.

“I am honored to join the distinguished and diverse group of individuals who make up the NACD Directorship Certification community and who are committed to advancing the highest standards of boardroom excellence,” Brownstein said. “The information I’ve learned and verified via NACD’s certification program are key assets to the companies I serve, as well as to my professional growth as a director.”

“NACD Certified Directors demonstrate their keen awareness that directorship is a profession that, like all professions, requires continuous learning,” Peter R. Gleason, CEO of the NACD, said. “Howard Brownstein is leading the way in achieving and maintaining the highest credential available to directors in the United States.”
