Supporting the UK Boardroom Apprentice programme
Boardroom Apprentice is about delivering diversity, creating change and achieving aspirations.
Boardroom Apprentice is a twelve month unique board learning, development and placement programme which enables those who would like to serve on a public or third sector board to learn and gain experience in a safe way before they take that step.
It seeks to enable a wider diversity of individuals to play their part in our boardrooms. The overarching aim of Boardroom Apprentice is ‘to move the board member role from aspiration to reality’.
In this podcast, Lisa Robson, our very own board apprentice talks to the Chair of the Coal Authority, Jeff Halliwell about the programme and why the Coal Authority was the perfect choice for her to carry out her placement.
