Working for a Professional Body

Working for a Professional Body

This is a fantastic opportunity to help your new staff or those who've had a change in role to learn about what makes working for a professional body different from working for private, public or other third sector organisations.

It usually takes six months to a year for staff who are new to the sector to understand what professional bodies do and how they are distinctive from private and public sector organisations. 

This course uses blended learning, group work and video case studies of real individuals working in the sector to give participants an opportunity to compare their roles with others working elsewhere. 

 

 

This day focuses on the 3 key themes:

  1. The composition of the sector
  2. Inside the professional body
  3. The future and sustainability of professional bodies

 

Course Delivery & Materials

The day will combine a mix of interactive sessions, video case studies, presentations and time for individual reflection. Start time is 9:30am and end time 5:00pm with tea, coffee and lunch provided.

Course is delivered by Prof Andy Friedman, CEO of PARN and Sarah Ward, our HR & Business Consultant.

You will receive a Training Folder full of supplementary information to support your learning on this topic, along with copies of course slides and case studies.

 

Who is the course aimed at?

  • Recent joiners to a professional body
  • Specialist staff such as in finance, IT or education
  • Staff who have had a change in role 

 

Learning Outcomes

  • Gain an overall perspective on professional bodies as a sector
  • Learn about the role of income and reserves
  • Understand the importance of members and member relations and consequences for all activities
  • Interpret the role of your other key stakeholders
  • Grasp the importance of reputation and intangible benefits professional bodies confer on members
