Management Training

Management Training – a better future for voluntary sector organisations in Kingston As part of our strategic approach to workforce development in the voluntary sector, Kingston Voluntary Action has worked with seven organisations in the borough to ensure that their managers access Chartered Management Institute (CMI) Diploma in Management and Leadership at level 5.

The qualification is widely renowned as the leading professional qualification for managers in the UK and our partner, Kingston College is a Centre of Excellence for delivering CMI courses. This practical and interactive programme, which started in January 2011, takes 10 months and will cover all key aspects of management and leadership.

This training is part funded by the BIG Lottery as part of KVA‟s 3-year Infrastructure Support and Development Project.

The benefiting organisations are: Mind in Kingston, Oxygen, Kingston Churches Action on Homelessness, Straight Talking Peer Education, Yorda Adventures, EnhanceAble and Kingston Carers‟ Network.

24

As part of the Infrastructure Support and Development Project, KVA is offering personalised support to organisations to help them improve their governance skills. Below is a case study of how we have recently supported one local organisation.

The organisation approached Kingston Voluntary Action prior to their away day most of which was to be dedicated to the trustees revising their governance.

We had two meetings with the chair and treasurer before the event to discuss the exact requirements of the organisation and plan the day.

Governance Support

Improving Your Organisationâ€&#x;s Governance

The day itself was full of interactive exercises that made trustees think about various governance issues such as trustee liability, trustees as employers, gaps in a committee skills, how to welcome new trustees, user involvement in people with a learning disability etc.

The Chair of the organisation said in their newsletter: „I think we all came away with a positive attitude and agree we want to work together to make sure we support and ensure a better life for people with a learning disability living here in Kingston. It was a really positive day and something we will repeat.â€&#x;

To discuss how your organisation might benefit from this support, contact Sanja Kane, Workforce Development and Training Co-ordinator on 020 8255 3335 or training@kva.org.uk 25
