Aims of the course
Many staff members are required to present papers or provide an update on a key issue at board committees. Some do this already as part of their existing roles; others may be
called upon to do so in the future.
This workshop explores and examines the key areas and skills that will enhance the ability and confidence of those attending board committees to perform well.
​
At the end of the session, you will have:
-
an enhanced understanding of the trust’s governance structure and the significance and purpose of board committees
-
explored what is required to produce an effective board paper or information to be submitted
-
how to understand your audience and how to design your presentation to suit it

​
This course is delivered over 45 minutes, the attendee has the opportunity to learn in their own time, and the learning is split over 3 videos. The Governance Academy remains available post-training to answer any questions.
