The training focuses on the roles and responsibilities of the Trustee and other principles of governance. The informal session lasts around 2 hours and includes interactive activities as well as a chance to discuss issues and ask questions. 

If you would like your team of trustees to benefit from this training, please contact VODA’s Core Services Team by telephone on 0191 323 2040 or by email at development@voda.org.uk to arrange a session.  We also run sessions at VODA 4 times per year, you can view the upcoming sessions on our training calendar

If you are unable to attend our in-person training, you can also access our online trustee training course ‘Introduction to Good Governance’ on the Elements Training Portal. The course will develop your skills and knowledge so you can become an effective Trustee. It provides an overview of key governance issues including essential Trustee duties and how to achieve Board diversity.
