Charity Trustees: Induction and refresher training

Overview

If you are interested in what makes a good working relationship between trustees and staff then NCVO's trustee training course is ideal for you.

This course draws on NCVO's cutting-edge thinking that has been developed from our governance work with a range of charities over many years, to ensure that your trustees and staff relationships go from strength to strength. This course aims to help trustees make an effective contribution to the governance of their organisation.
