The Six Day Advanced Leadership Course is a program for people committed to understanding the craft of community organising – who want to play a key role in leading the activities of the Alliance inside their organisation and acting as a bridge between our member organisations.
The six day course builds a close community of leaders across participating civil society organisations
that represent the diversity of Sydney.
These leaders are equipped with the tools they need to be more strategic and effective
and to build and strengthen their organisations in the process.
