The Further Education CFO Programme (Code: C0174)

Leadership
Back
As demands on the further education sector rise, the need for FDs and CFOs to step forward is clear. ICAEW have been commissioned by the Education and Training Foundation (ETF) to deliver a programme that will deliver a step change in the ability of CFOs and FDs in the sector to partner with their CEO to drive strategy forward.

Pricing options

£825

The above fees only apply to those Chief Finance Officers working for eligible English Further Education and Training organisations (GFE's and Sixth-form colleges, for example) as they are subsidised by the ESFA. The fees for Chief Finance Officers from Wales, Scottish and Northern Irish organisations who wish to attend will not be eligible for this subsidised rate as education budgets have been devolved to their respective governments. For organisations outside of England, the cost to attend this course would be £2,000, please contact bookingsupport@etfoundation.co.uk to book your place.
