Each fall, Edvance hosts a series of sessions across the province for school board members to explore the questions: what is good governance and why does it matter?
These sessions are a great opportunity to gather your school leadership team together to explore what it means to flourish as a board. You will hear best practices, learn about resources available to you, and network with other boards from Edvance affiliate schools.
