CSA School Governance Program Short Course 1

EFFECTIVE GOVERNANCE - SHORT COURSE 1

Christian schools seek to provide quality education and care in faithful response to the Gospel of Christ. The School Governance Program developed by Effective Governance in collaboration with Christian Schools Australia is a 12-module course designed to equip Christian school board members, the principal and school leadership team with the key governance knowledge they need to understand and support the board's role so that directors remain mission true and ministry-orientated and secure the school's long-term sustainability. The course is based on the School Governance Practice Framework, which is adapted from the Corporate Governance Practice Framework and Methodology, published in the Directors at Work: A Practical Guide for Boards. (Thomson Reuters, 2012).

This one-day program will cover Short Course 1:

Short Course 1 - Good Governance Practice

Module 3 - Decision-making and Board Processes

Each module comes with:

A set of Topical notes (approx. 40 x A4 pages)
