Improving Board Effectiveness

We provide either stand alone support or workshops designed to follow up our on-line Governor HealthCheck. Every training session we deliver aims to provide you with all the essential information you might need as well as helping to develop skills.

Alongside tailor made support to tackle outcomes from our on-line HealthCheck we can offer programmes and workshops on topics like interviewing skills for governors or analysing college accounts but we know that different Corporation Boards have different needs so we can develop more or less any course or workshop around a topic you have so why not call us to explore the options?

Some of the more common options are set out below but whether you see what you require or not please call us to explore how we might help.

• Using a Policy Governance model to drive college improvement
• Enabling the Board to add value - the role of the corporation
• Inspection and Audit - ensuring compliance for Boards
• Ends not means governance - Governors govern and managers manage
• Enhancing strategic planning - driving efficiency and effectiveness

Seeking new Governors? Wanting to add new expertise?

If you are looking to improve the skills in your governing body we can help by undertaking formal search, in your area, for a governor with the right background, skills and experience to add real value to your Board. Why not take a look at our Governor search facility on the Governor Development section.

Governance development and our Governance HealthCheck

We know that well structured, truly effective governance is a vital component in the success of every College or Academy. Delivery at Corporation Board level is not only a legal obligation, it is also the most efficient way of ensuring the continued viability of your institution and the successful provision of learning that really does improve lives.

We believe that success starts with the way organisations are governed and led and that's why we have brought together some of the best minds in FE to create a service for Governors that provides local, affordable training and development for your Board.
