Who is this course for?
On Board is essential training for all Board Members of public bodies (including the Chair), as well as being highly relevant to Chief Executives and senior managers who deal with Boards.
The course will also be extremely useful for staff in sponsor teams responsible for liaising with public bodies and staff in public appointments units involved in the appointment of Board Members.
How is the course delivered?
On Board is a lively and highly interactive course brought to life by the use of practical case studies and the sharing of real life experiences and anecdotes.
This online course is delivered over two half day sessions by a mix of Powerpoint presentation and case studies/group discussion.
Slides are used by the course leader to set out best practice in key areas; but most of the course involves consideration of real life case studies and facilitated discussion of practical issues that affect Boards and Board Members.
