Customised training

Customised training can help your corporation with an area you’d like to focus on. 

We can tailor training to meet the needs of a group or your whole corporation. 

Workshops can be held all over Australia. The most common locations are:

• at a corporation office or service
• in the corporation’s community
• online.

It can involve a corporation’s:

• directors
• future directors
• members 
• key staff 
• key stakeholders relevant to the issues to be covered.

We can also deliver training to people thinking about registering their group under the CATSI Act.

Workshop structure

The workshops are tailored for each group or corporation. They can go for a few hours, a full day or multiple days. 

To get the best possible program, talk to us before the training about your needs.

Consider:

• the goals of your training
• who will benefit from the training and who from your corporation should attend – for example, directors and the CEO
• the kind of training you want
• whether your rule book needs updating
• if there are any governance challenges to investigate.

Training options
