Australia Council Arts Governance Program: Workshop Participant Page

This page is designed to help participants in the Australia Council's Arts Governance Program to navigate their way to the "further resources" information listed in the Participant's Workbook you received at the workshop.

Don't forget that you can chat with your peers and pose governance questions to arts governance experts in the Arts Governance Program Alumni Forum.

Workshop participants also have access to all of the password-protected areas of ICDA, including hundreds of help sheets, tools and templates, through your complimentary two-year ICDA membership.
