Taking minutes can be hard. Vague agendas. Ambiguous agreements. An unskilled chair. All these can make the taking of an accurate record a daunting task.

This practical and interactive one-day online course provides a toolkit of skills which will boost your confidence in the writing and presenting of accurate minutes.

This introductory course is perfect for governance leads and board members alike. Essential Sports Governance provides a detailed overview of the principles and practice of sports governance and how to get to compliance and beyond.

This intermediate course focuses on the key role of the sports governance lead in delivering and supporting effective governance.

This one-day course is for those with 3+ years of experience of taking minutes and/or for minute takers whose minutes will be published who want to improve the quality and value of their minutes and to ensure they can be understood through a retrospective lens.  You will learn tools and techniques to take high-quality, technical minutes in pressurised environments in which sensitivity, accuracy, speed, and ethics all add to the complexity, the role technology could play in supporting your approach and how to work together with key stakeholders to support the minute taking process.
