Course Content

This is a course in the community spaces series

This session will cover three areas that affect community spaces. It will run from 14:00. After each presentation, there will be time for discussion and questions.

This month we will be covering:

14:00 Planning for the longer term - setting future goals

So often, committees say they wish they had the time to think about the future in a more structured way. Take half an hour to look at some of the ways in which this can be built into your regular meetings - and the benefits of doing so.

14:45 Having a reserves policy

How to work out what you need to have in place, go through the questions you need to think about.  This session will de-mystify the whole process and give you plenty of links and information.

15:30 Changing from a trust to a CIO

Based on the ACRE model constitution, this session will go through how to use the template, what the process is for applying and sources of help and support.

After the event, we will post the recordings  of the presentations and you will have access to free ACRE information sheets and other  resources.

Charging policy

DCA is committed to producing as much affordable training as we can.  While some of the courses are charged-for, we offer subscription options to ensure that they are affordable (as above).  Our courses still remain some of the best value in the industry.

We will offer money-off  vouchers and special offers every month, so do look out for Academy news and promotions in our e-newsletters and at networking events.  Sponsored courses will be free of charge. 

You will receive a receipt upon purchasing a paid-for course, so don't forget to claim the course fee back from your organisation if you are able to do so.
