Certificate in School Boardsmanship
Governance is a leadership process, and to function effectively, individual board members and boards as a whole, should have a clear understanding not only of their governance roles and responsibilities, but also how to practically and correctly apply them within a leadership framework or context. Thus, regular governance training is essential for school boards.
This Certificate in Boardsmanship program equips board members and superintendents with the knowledge and skills to build and support an effective governance structure.
This new NVASB program includes the same core governance principles that have made it the standard for board member professional development across the country but with an accelerated timeline, convenient format and program flexibility for busy professionals.
The program allows Board members to complete the program at their own pace.
When they register for any of the five courses, they have access to materials and useful handouts to share with other members of your governance team.
Each course will have pre-course assignments which need to be completed prior to attending the full-day course.
Program modules are offered at various locations statewide throughout the year, allowing participants the flexibility to choose where and when to attend.
