WBBS general manager Paul Turner said: “Management training courses are often extremely expensive, and for voluntary organisations, these costs can be prohibitive. And, no matter what the profession, we all face a very competitive and demanding world, where the standard of management can be the difference between success and failure.”

The programme will be part-funded by the European Social Fund.
