About the Training programme...

Building on the success of 2001's GreenFish Partnership Factsheet pack we are introducing a short-course training programme for voluntary and community organisations across the city of Manchester.

The courses, based on the subjects covered in the Factsheet pack, will be run by staff from Voluntary Action Manchester, Community Accountancy Service, Community Technical Aid Centre and Manchester Community Information Network. The course programme will last for 3 months initially but we hope soon to confirm that it will run for the duration of 2003.

 

What courses are on offer

Initially courses will include Book keeping, Budgets and cashflow, Accessible buildings, Business planning, Recruiting and employing staff, Funding, Capital funding, Effective Management Committees and Starting up a new group.
