Elements - eLearning
Elements training portal for voluntary organisations offers interactive eLearning courses that you can study in your own time and at your own pace. Each course has been developed with expertise from the teams at Connected Voice, VODA and Northumberland CVA.
There are three courses currently available through Elements:
- An Introduction to Good Governance: Essential learning for new and existing trustees - ideal for new trustees or those in need of a refresh on roles and legal responsibilities, and how to achieve board diversity. (Approx one hour for completion)
- An Introduction to Good Fundraising: Success with grant applications - help your team to check you have everything in place and prepare an effective funding bid. (Approx one hour for completion)
- Understanding Your Charity’s Finance - gain a clear understanding of charity accounts and how to read a balance sheet, essential for good governance and financial decision making. (Approx one hour for completion)
- Adult Safeguarding Essentials - A free course aimed a staff, trustees and volunteers working in the voluntary and community settings.
Each course costs £12 per person. Organisations with an annual income of less than £10,000 can apply for a free coupon code by emailing alex.woolley@voda.org.uk– you need one code per course.
Simple clear explanations, plenty of practice with the example to complete but with the guide of the correct answers. Cost was low and fair.
Feedback on Understanding your Charity's Finance
I’ve worked with many CICs and charity boards, but now I really understand their roles and responsibilities, making future collaborations much easier.
Feedback on Introduction to Good Governance
It really summarised the key points of applications perfectly and was a great skills refresher without containing an overwhelming amount of info.
