Foundation Investment Training

Online Event 

Why should I attend?

This intensive seminar is designed to give participants a thorough understanding of the fundamental principles of charity investment, as well as their responsibilities as finance manager or trustees. We aim to provide attendees with an outline of charity finance, their obligations within this and how to make responsible decisions regarding charity investments. 

 

Who should attend?

The course is open to charities only, and is suitable for anyone in the finance function responsible for investments, as well as charity trustees and CEOs.
