NUS launches the Officer Development Programme 2012

NUS is delighted to launch the Officer Development Programme (ODP) 2012-13 for elected officers. Since last year’s programme we have listened to membership feedback and believe we have developed a programme that is current, interactive and challenging for delegates.
ODP provides an excellent opportunity for officers to develop their skills, generate new ideas and to gain support from others within the movement; and in the coming months we will be announcing:
-
Venues
-
Delegate fees
