IF YOU ARE a graduate of QMU, think you might have something to offer the University’s governing body, but currently lack the board experience and confidence you need to join it, look out for the launch of our new GIVE programme.
Launching soon, GIVE will offer alumni without board experience formal training and mentoring, along with the opportunity to witness the work of our governing body (the University Court) in action. It is designed to provide a pathway into full membership of the Court.
Pamela Woodburn, the Chair of our Court explains:
"As a University committed to inclusiveness, we want our governing body to reflect the rich diversity of the groups we serve, and to hear the voices of people of all ages, backgrounds and circumstances. The GIVE programme will strengthen our ability to do that, along with providing a meaningful way for alumni to help shape QMU."
Membership of any board can provide you with a powerful route to having your voice heard, and to giving back to society. And GIVE will not only provide a pathway to membership of QMU’s Court, it will also help participants prepare for board membership more generally, enabling our diverse alumni community to contribute across civic society. If you are interested of learning more when our GIVE scheme opens, email alumni@qmu.ac.uk.
