Expenses
Are you aware that all costs incurred when being a board member are reimbursed? Childcare and transport are also offered if you need it so you can attend meetings and events.
Induction
New for this election – resident board members will undertake a three month induction period before taking up their position. This will include a comprehensive training programme and shadowing existing board members.
Development
Giving board members the chance to develop themselves is also a new focus for BNDfC.
A plan to improve skills and knowledge, including the use of personal learning plans, is currently being developed. On offer will be more support through formalised and individual learning and development programmes. This training will be funded and related to board members roles.
Getting the Investors in People standard will also provide BNDfC with a framework to ensure all staff and board members have the right skills, knowledge and motivation to perform efficiently.
