Good governance is a key issue for modern day charities. They are required to show that their organisations are well run, properly controlled by an effective governance team and are fully accountable to stakeholders. This course will examine key legal aspects, as required under Charity law and Company law where applicable with a focus on the public benefit reporting requirement, the need to manage risk and ensure that the Charity is, and remains, a going concern.
Reference will also be made to good practice guidelines and procedures that have been developed in the industry.
