Governance and trustee professional community

All our professional communities are designed to be knowledge-building networks. The Professional Community is not a traditional leadership development programme, nor is it a network in the commonly used meaning of that phrase.

This professional community moves beyond the knowledge of the individual, to building knowledge within the sector, by providing a safe and supportive environment to explore the challenges of practice and support the wider system to become the best at getting better.

CST's professional communities focus on the concept of ‘practice challenges’ and engage through:

Termly virtual community meetings.
A one-day Professional Community conference.
Networking with colleagues across our sector.

Access to CST briefings and guidance.

As a member of the community, you will also gain exclusive access to our virtual platform. CST Hive is a peer learning platform that connects you with a community of information, resources and support, that you can access anytime and anywhere. On the platform you'll find an ever-growing collection of resources, containing information about key knowledge areas needed in our profession, as well as a space to connect, learn and interact with your peers from across the country.

Membership of the community is included for employees, trustees, and members of member trusts as a benefit of CST membership. Join using the button below with your MyCST membership details.
