HGA Governor Events & CPD
All events HGA facilitate, whether face-to-face or online via webcam, are individually tailored and delivered by experienced governance consultants and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) - our sessions are always interactive, with delegates able to ask questions and take part in discussions.
We are also delighted to signpost Herefordshire Council's training programme for local governors, recently re-commenced following many years of non-availability. We wish the Council every success in this provision, and keenly look forward to its continued growth and further development!
A PDF copy of the HC Trading Offer for 2026-27 is available here:
To help support the HCC trading offer, HGA no longer provides
separate training for individual governors from Hereford schools; however
we are able to signpost alternative providers as requested.
HGA continues to provide governor advice & mentoring,
with training for full boards
during term-time throughout the year, on all aspects of governance

At HGA we operate a fair-charge policy...
In order to provide the service we do and to keep costs to a minimum for all schools, the viability of each of our events is always carefully measured - and by default therefore is number dependent. We’re grateful to the majority who always respect this and book responsibly, letting us know in good time if they're no longer able to make an event they've confirmed.
To protect events against those who don’t however, please be aware that in fairness to everyone else and to maintain viability, those making late cancellations or unexpectedly dropping out of events may still incur fees; these are determined on a sliding scale depending on notice of cancellation, with bookings cancelled on the day of the event or no-shows remaining payable in full. NB: late cancellations or no-shows for free events incur administration fees.
