Training
NICVA organises a comprehensive programme of scheduled and bespoke training throughout the year. Through member surveys and feedback on training needs we draw up a programme that covers the skills gaps that voluntary and community groups have identified as important.
The latest training calendar is available for download at the bottom of this page.
