Working For A Professional Body - Virtual Training Course

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.

Held over two virtual sessions on the following dates

Lesson 1 - Monday 14th December
Lesson 2 - Tuesday 15th December

Each session will last from 11.00 am to 13.00pm   

This year PARN's Autumn training courses will be running  a little differently. Rather than being held as a full day in person session, delegates will instead be invited to attend a number of interactive webinars. Each lesson will explore a different topic related to the course and will provide delegates with the same content, research and interactive sessions that you could usually expect to see at a PARN training course.

Delegates need only pay a one off fee of £50 +VAT (£100 +VAT for Non Members of PARN) which will provide access to each session. Alternatively PARN members can use their member benefit free place to sign up for a course.

This course is delivered by Will Pritchard
