Training for new Treasurers 2012

Especially relevant to: Area and Group Treasurers. Posted: 30 January 2012. For information and action: Dates have provisionally been set for three Treasurer training sessions between March and May.

New to the role of Area or Group Treasurer? Then you may be interested in attending one of our upcoming training sessions.

These will cover all of the essentials, from maintaining financial records to completing the annual accounts, and from budgeting for the year ahead to monitoring and controlling expenditure. There will also be the opportunity to meet other Treasurers and ask questions.

The sessions have provisionally been set for the below dates and locations:

Thursday 29th March 2012: Ramblers central office, Vauxhall, London

Wednesday 25th April 2012: Manchester YHA

Friday 11th May 2012: Glasgow YHA

The sessions will last for 5-6 hours, including a buffet lunch.
