Governance Training for Councils and Community Boards
Whether your stepping up to a new board or committee role and need to know what to do next or you’ve been in a position for a while we are here to guide you to the next level.
Good governance
benefits us all
The community or organisation can benefit from governance training. There are some issues that need attention and need an expert to come in. Continuous improvement is always a good idea, even if it is not mandatory.
If you have ever been on a board or committee then you probably already know they don’t always function as smoothly as you would expect.
And when there has been turnover in committee positions, so there also needs to be ongoing training.
Governance doesn't always work the way it should
Having a poorly governed community organisation is frustrating for everyone involved.
There can be disagreements and personality clashes which is frustrating and there’s confusion about roles and responsibilities. Â
Decisions are being made that make us feel angry and lead to confusion. I’m feeling under pressure to get things fixed sooner than later.
Governance should be straightforward
Committee and board members should know what’s involved in their roles, and be able to all get on together to make good decisions that benefit everyone in the organisation.Â
There should be options to learn governance that best suit the budget and the community members. The training should be easy to understand and delivered in a way that suits everyone.Â

How we can help
Regular governance training programs can be template and boring if the trainer hasn’t had years of practical experience. And if the information doesn’t stick, then everyone has forgotten what they have learned a week later.
If you want to provide quality training for your community and members to get back on track, the iClick2Learn governance training is for you.
