Course Overview

Good governance is foundation of a successful voluntary organisation. Without strong oversight, even the most passionate organisations will struggle to turn their vision and ambition into long-term impact.

Board members play a vital role in providing oversight and ensuring their organisations are well led, accountable and equipped to succeed.

Whether you are new to a board or looking to refresh your expertise, this practical and engaging session will give you the key skills and knowledge to make a meaningful contribution and support your organisation now and in the future.

You’ll explore the principles of good governance, key responsibilities of your role, and gain practical insight into how board members can work well together. By the end of the session, you’ll have a clear understanding of what it means to be an effective board member and the confidence to fulfil your role and add real value to your organisation.

  • Governance
