AHEG Skills · Executive & Governance
Boards that govern, not boards that receive papers.
Training for governing bodies, academic boards and the secretariat that supports them - corporate and academic governance under the HESF, delegations that work, and meetings that actually oversee quality.

What this covers
Academic Governance Training, as we run it.
- Corporate and academic governance under the HESF governance domain
- Roles and delegations - governing body, academic board, executive
- Overseeing quality and integrity - the questions good boards ask
- Academic freedom and freedom of speech obligations in practice
- Board papers and reporting - getting signal, not volume
- Induction for new members - competent from the first meeting
