Scheduled Training

Supporting Nonprofits to Become More Effective At What They Do

We offer a comprehensive Scheduled Training Programme twice a year starting in January and September. Our courses address the needs of people working in nonprofit organisations in both a voluntary and paid capacity.

Autumn/Winter 2025 training brochure with a full list of courses can be found here.

Individual courses concentrate on a specific topic. They are practically focused and use participative methods to allow participants the opportunity to learn from others working in the sector.

Topics we deliver training on include:

  • Board Roles & Responsibilities
  • Charities Governance Code
  • Financial Management for Non-Profits
  • Understanding Budgets
  • Strategic Planning
  • Companies Act 2014 and the Charities Act 2009 for Non-profits
  • Role of the Company Secretary
  • Role of the Chairperson
  • Microsoft Excel

Our scheduled courses are delivered mostly online. Many of our courses are also available on a customised basis nationwide on request. Learn more about our customised training.

Testimonials

Andrea Shupinski offered a blend of instruction and hands-on exercises, helping to solidify the information for the participants. She also regularly checked with us to be sure we understood and her tight time-keeping was very much appreciated.

I thought the overview of the different platforms was good and the guidance regarding the best types of content and when to post was very beneficial.

The practice-based insights from Jillian where she followed up her general theory with an experience or anecdote of how the theory applied. And also the structured approach to a very unstructured topic like “Influence”. The first half of knowledge building about how the legislative process works was also very insightful.
