Course content: Role of trustees

Step into your role with confidence! Whether you are new to being a trustee, or are looking to refresh your skills, this interactive course is designed to give you clarity, confidence and practical insight into trusteeship and doing it well.

What we will cover:

• Understanding your organisation’s legal structure – get to grips with how your organisation is set up
• Handling conflicts with confidence – learn how to spot conflicts of interest early and deal with them professionally
• Making strong, informed and balanced decisions jointly
• Meeting reporting – understand what needs to be reported, when and how to maintain compliance
• When and where to seek more help and advice – there is no need to navigate challenges alone

Because this is an open course, you’ll benefit from hearing different perspectives and experiences from trustees across a range of organisations. Log off feeling informed, empowered and ready to make an impact.

In-house option: if you would like to train your whole trustee board, you can arrange in-house training just for your organisation and it will be tailored to your governing document.
