T5S6 - Third sector L&D

Thursday 24 April 2025
Conference Theatre 5
Professional development , Skills, talent and learning , Future L&D
Learning and development in the non-profit sector is different. Tight budgets, governance constraints, and risk-aversion all demand more from the L&D professional, and sometimes the best way to make progress is to seek forgiveness rather than permission. But if you are being innovative and driving change, you have to understand who you’re dealing with, and the unique challenges of your organisation, because each is very different. Join us for a deep dive into effective, innovative L&D in the third sector, and leave with a plan to start making a change tomorrow!

Making every resource count: effective L&D for non-profits 

Working in the non-profit sector presents unique challenges, from strict governance structures to limited budgets and a risk-averse mindset. Yet with the right approach you can work within these constraints to spark creative solutions. This session explores inventive ways to support learning and development, providing ideas that go beyond traditional approaches and embrace agility, resourcefulness and a little bit of daring. 

Attendees will examine how to overcome third-sector risk aversion, engage stakeholders, and rethink resources to make learning more effective and inclusive. Leave with practical strategies for navigating challenges, fostering curiosity and creativity, and building a culture of learning that can be applied in any organisation, within any sector. 

  • Working creatively within governance structures and budgets 
  • Shifting organisational mindsets to support innovation 
  • Building effective partnerships with internal and external collaborators 
  • Applying non-profit thinking in for-profit L&D Teams 
  • Balancing risk management and experimentation
