The NHS Trust secretary
This one day course examines the increasingly crucial role played by the board or trust secretary within the modern NHS.
The job title may differ but the demands of the role are consistent through Foundation Trusts, Primary Care Trusts and other NHS structures. The complexity of the NHS organisation, with its emphasis upon individual care, its quasi-corporate structure and its high public and media profile means that the secretariat role has never been more important.
Who should attend?
Those fulfilling or about to fulfil the role of board secretary, finance directors, assistants to the board secretary
Price: £400 + VAT
Dates: 7 November 2012
Location: ICSA, 16 Park Crescent, London W1B 1AH
Effective governance in an NHS Trust
This course aims to help delegates develop an understanding of good governance practice in the NHS.
Governance in the NHS is about more than clinical issues; it's about the effective working of boards and the wider governance of Foundation Trusts, Primary Care Trusts and other NHS structures. The range, complexity and interactions of these organisations, together with their high public and media profiles means that the need for a thorough understanding of their governance responsibilities has never been more acute.
Who should attend?
Directors and board secretaries in the NHS, directors and NEDs of policy or healthcare, finance directors, chief executive officers, and anybody who advises or serves an NHS board
Price: £400 + VAT
Dates: 17 April and 11 October 2012
