Here’s what Co-ordinators of Governor Services (CoGS) from across the UK think of Modern Governor:
“If face-to-face training becomes too expensive and/or governor services shrink, Modern Governor can continue to support the changing role of governors and reduce the level of bureaucracy involved in building capacity.”

“Ultimately, we’ve been able to target our limited resources more precisely and effectively. The fact that Modern Governor’s modules have been created with help from experts in Governor Services and are easy to access and well presented factored in our decision.”
Sue Pagliaro, City of York Council (read pdf )
“Faced with the challenge of ensuring that 3,000 school governors had access to relevant and timely training, I found that Modern Governor provided the answers. Prior to using Modern Governor, the electronic training that was delivered resembled little more than having a text book on screen with no visuals and certainly no engagement.”
David Marriott, (formerly of) Wiltshire County Council (read pdf)
“If I was to describe it in one word it would be convenience. The service is a great benefit for Governors who are parents allowing them to fit training around their lifestyle, plus the bite-sized format increases the flexibility.”

Ruth Agnew, Cheshire East Council: (read pdf )

Angie Lund, School Governor in Wokingham, living in New Zealand: (read pdf )
