Governance Module 3 – Board Conduct

Board service is much like the rest of the Christian walk – we not only think about what we do, but also the attitude and manner in which we do it. This course will help boards to reflect on their conduct as they carry out their important task

Description


 

Course structure

The course is designed to be completed as a module that is part of the suite of governance training courses. However, boards can access individual topic modules as needed.

These short-courses can be undertaken by individual board members, or be completed as a board together. The modules are kept short so boards can fit the training into their busy board calendars.

The training builds on the materials covered in the Board Induction Course, and this is a useful pre-requisite to the governance modules.

Outcomes

As a result of participating in this course, participants will understand:

  • Christian expectations of board member conduct
  • How this relates to legal obligations and board performance
  • Conduct expectations as they apply to board responsibilities and relationships
  • The importance of confidentiality as a board member
  • How conflicts of interest should be identified, declared and managed
  • The purpose and benefit of a Board Code of Conduct

Governance Module 12 – Leading Your Association

Christian Education National (CEN) schools are born out of a gathering of people of faith.  These groups have established schools which recognise the sovereignty of God in all aspects of individual and organisational life, including the legitimate requirements of governments.

For our schools to thrive, we need Associations of people committed to Christian education and who seek to ensure schools stay true to their vision, mission and values. Our Associations must be strong and vibrant so our school can be too.

Boards play an essential role in building, maintaining and engaging their Associations, and to being accountable to those Associations.

This course will help boards in those important tasks.

Governance Module 11 – Not For Profit NSW

This module is for NSW Boards to help them navigate the not-for-profit requirements of the Education Act 1990. These requirements are additional to the ACNC requirements and are easy to breach. The consequences can be very serious, including loss of all government funding. Similar provisions apply in Victoria and this content will be useful to Victorian Boards.

This module helps boards (and other responsible persons) to ensure compliance in this tricky area.
This course will help boards in the important task of financial governance.
