Webinar

Changes to charity size and reporting thresholds

Our February webinar examined in detail recently-announced changes to charity size and reporting thresholds which will come into effect in coming months.

The changes will soon see thousands of charities re-classified - particularly from medium-sized to small - with their reporting obligations to the ACNC to change so they more appropriately match the size of their operations. Our webinar looked at the changes and what they mean for your charity.

Welcoming new Responsible People to your charity

With many charities holding AGMs and welcoming new board or committee members, our September webinar looked at how to properly induct new Responsible People, as well as emphasising the vital role they have in a charity's governance.

The webinar provided practical guidance and tips for successful charity induction programs, and examined ACNC Governance Standard 5 - the Standard which establishes the key duties for Responsible People.

The pandemic: its impact on people, and what we can do

Our August webinar was co-presented with The Xfactor Collective. We looked at research and work from The Xfactor Collective focussing on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on charities and their people.

The webinar brought together specialist knowledge to help charities understand these impacts and provided practical and meaningful ways for charity leaders to support the wellbeing of the people involved in their charity.
