As part of this, each year the University supports around 20 students to take part in the professionally accredited \u2018Get on Board Programme\u2019 (with ACGP). This initiative involves four sessions where students learn about Governance concepts and practice and are encouraged to undertake a board level position with a local charity, voluntary sector organisation or public body relevant to their interest and professional ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The event will not only provide an opportunity to learn more about the benefits of encouraging more young professionals to join boards, but will also allow our students to connect with Third Sector leaders and mark the celebration of this year\u2019s Get On Board participants.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The full programme for the evening will be confirmed shortly, but we are delighted to announce that David Robb, Chief Executive of the Office of the Scottish Charity Regular (OSCR) will be joining us as our keynote speaker.
