Board Governance Training
Boards of Directors play a critical fiscal and programmatic oversight role in charter schools, but too often board members are not familiar enough with how charter schools function to effectively execute their responsibilities.
EdTec has assisted numerous charter schools with board governance by playing roles in board formation, governance training, and by being an active participant, witness, and facilitator at hundreds of charter school board meetings.
EdTec's Board Governance Training can be tailored to your board's skill sets and needs (e.g., newly formed boards versus established boards).
Some typical areas that the training can cover include:
- Board Legal Responsibilities
- Conflict of Interest
- Roles and Responsibilities within the School (Board vs. Director)
- Brown Act Compliance
- Committee Development
- Board Composition
- Effective Board Practices
- Policy Development
- Instructional
- Financial
- Personnel
- Student and parent
- Conflict Resolution
- Health and Safety
- Board Operations
