The Zurich Community Trust are really excited to be working with NCVO to bring you a more flexible option regarding accessing training. 

Following our recent six month pilot, we will be extending this offer, so that our charity partners can book an additional five days of free training per organisation on courses of your choice! This offer will run until the 31 December 2024. These training days can be utilised on any of the NCVO open courses available on their website.

They can be utilised in a variety of ways, for example ten half day courses, five full day courses or a mixture, as long as the total number of days does not exceed five days in total! They can be used for employed staff, volunteers or trustees – however your organisation sees fit!

ZCT will be invoiced directly by the NCVO for any bookings made so you don’t have to pay anything!

How to access the training

1. Pick the course and date you wish to attend (new dates are published on a regular basis) from the website All Training Events.     
2. Once you have decided on the course complete this form. This should be done at least two weeks before the start date to avoid disappointment.
3. Once you have been manually entered onto the course you will receive a notification from our automated system and joining information and all other correspondence is sent a week before the event start.
4. Should you wish to transfer please give NCVO training team at least five working days notice by contacting training@NCVO.org.
5. Please let the NCVO training team know at least three days before the session if you need to cancel for any reason.

Terms

• The NCVO will NOT be able to refund any training costs incurred for courses booked directly through the website.
• The NCVO cannot accept part payment for courses, for example it will not be possible to book one person on two courses which last two days each.
• All data complies with GDPR policy and full info can be found via the T&C link in the form. Your name and organisation will be shared with the NCVO for the purpose of monitoring course bookings which ZCT are funding.
• If you cancel the course ten days prior to the event or fail to show up to a course, ZCT will still be charged, so this will still count as one of the five days available to you. We therefore strongly recommend that you find someone to replace you so that the space is not wasted.
