Training Course: Working For A Professional Body

According to our members, it 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 is a fantastic opportunity for new staff or those who have changed roles to learn about what makes working for a professional body different from working for private, public or other third sector organisations.
