Youth, aged 16 – 30, will learn about boards including:

  • laws that govern boards of directors
  • non-profit organizational structures

  • roles and procedures of board meetings

Participants will also have the opportunity to be involved in a mock board meeting to practise these newfound skills.

  • gaining management skills
  • broadening your networking and career goals
