Our Features
Training Workshops with Buddle
In partnership with Buddle, we are delighted to offer a free 1 hour session on Finance Management on 29th May 2024.
Buddle training courses are short, free training sessions that will develop your knowledge and understanding and ultimately will help you develop and support your club, group or organisation. These courses are available to individuals 16 years of age or above, based in England.
These training opportunities are funded by Sport England to ensure they are free to attend and accessible to everyone (we anticipate that the cost per person would be at least £25).
The deadline to register is 5pm Monday 27th May 2024.
Cracking the Code: Understanding Government Contracts
Are you a Black and Minoritised Ethnic (BME) charity or social enterprise based in England? Have you been seeking opportunities to enhance your procurement skills, but have minimal or zero experience of tendering in the public sector?
Our 90-minute free webinar is your ideal first step to conquer government contracts. You will gain insights on the supply chain process from an experienced social entrepreneur and a commissioner, and understand what they’re looking for in a strong bid.
The deadline to register is 5pm Sunday 2nd June 2024.
The Future of fundraising: A Beginner's Guide to AI
We know that many not-for-profit organisations aren’t effectively using AI to benefit their fundraising – especially smaller organisations with fewer resources that are in danger of getting left behind.
Join our transformative 90 minute webinar to learn how to leverage the power of AI to boost your fundraising and communication efforts. This is an introductory level session designed to build your confidence and give you practical tips that you can use.
This webinar is £20, or £10 if you are a V4CE member. (Membership is free! How to become a member?)
The deadline to register is 12pm Monday 10th June 2024.
