Committee training provides all committee members (new and old) with a range of useful information delivered by an outstanding team of early childhood experts. In 2009 we have an exciting training program that offers you choice and flexibility.
We also appreciate that it is not always possible for members to attend training provided externally so we have resolved this problem by creating the CommitteeWorks DVD. It is a practical option available for members to use at their own convenience.
Comments from previous training sessions:
I was very thankful that I could attend as I found it very helpful as well as a little daunting!
A great session, thank you - highly informative, very useful training
Presenter was excellent . Thorough, clear, informed and sensible!
Excellent delivery and content given the time constraints
Good general overview and springboard for further committee discussion
