    I assume the member is looking for a planning calendar that sets out the major items the Board is going to deal with in the coming year. I have attached a template, which I have revised to delete anything that might identify the Corporation.

    I am not aware of any particular format for a Calendar for a Board of Directors.  A calendarshould be developed to meet the needs of the Corporation. A Finance Committeescheduled for a particular day each month depending on the type or nature of thebusiness.  Similarly other committees as the Board may deem fit.

    The Calendar must meet the needs of the Corporation.

    The attached is a template for a Board Calendar - it simply sets out the scheduled meeting dates for the Board and Committees.

    From my experience, there is no special format.

    Example

    What we are using may be too simple, but I've attached a copy for your reference.

    I'm not sure what is referred to here.

    We keep a running calendar of Board meetings and events that is updated and provided for information in the back of the materials sent out for every regular Board meeting.  A precedent for this would not be useful as it would not be replicable from board to board.

    We lso maintain a "checklist" for the Board and each committee which list all of the responsibilities to be met by the Board or relevant committee, as defined in their respective Terms of Reference, legislation and securities requirements (listed down the "Y" axis).  Across the top, we list the months in which we schedule regular quarterly meetings and then make sure that each required activity is given a spot on one agenda.  This enables us to ensure that nothing ever falls through the cracks.  In addition, each checklist is reviewed annually or more often, if required, to ensure that it is comprehensive and that the Board's/committee's work is spaced evenly throughout the year.

    Is this what is meant?
