Investing in training puts you at an advantage during a recession

When money is tight it’s tempting to view training as a luxury you can’t afford, but investing in skills now puts your organisation in a better position to move forward as the recession eases.

NICVA’s training calendar is full of essential courses created in response to your feedback. You asked for accredited training and we are pleased to be able to offer a range of courses accredited by the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) and Managing to Fundraise, accredited by Queen’s University.
