Abstract

A contract has been awarded for a governance development programme.

Aims of the governance development framework include:

— ensuring board members are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to fulfil their responsibilities,

— ensuring clerks/company secretaries are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to provide high quality support for governance to their organisation,

— developing the necessary skills and behaviours so that boards operate effectively, and board members can provide support and challenge to senior leaders and the wider organisation,

— supporting board members to draw on their previous experience to add value to the wider board,

— providing a diagnostic assessment, utilising a skills audit, for board members to build relevant learning plans.

An essential element of this programme focussed on creating a highly engaging and high impact programme. Whilst there was a high level of content to be covered, consideration was given to how the content was presented in a meaningful, engaging and accessible way.
