Advisory Boards

The IQ Club Advisor Academy offers experienced and sophisticated IQ Club members an accelerated pathway to accreditation to chair the advisory boards of privately-owned and family businesses.  

The program is supported by an already established business community and has an accelerated program designed specifically to coincide with our MADE In Expo at the end of 2025.

Training and Education

The IQ Club Advisor Academy, through the Family Business Institute, provides on-going training, education, and support for IQ Club members who have a demonstrated history of advising to business owners.

The accelerated 12-month cirriculum has three certifications (Agile Advisor, Trusted Advisor, Lead Advisor) and three accreditations (Expert Facilitator, Advisory Board Chair, Family Business Advisor).

Introduction and Placement

If you find it challenging to introduce and engage clients, we’ll do it for you.

Firstly, we can assist you in increasing your referral sources through IQ Club membership.

Plus, Academy graduates will be introduced and placed into engagements during our MADE IN marketing campaign and resulting Expo in 2025.
