Full Cost Recovery: from theory to practice

Tuesday 13th July (Exeter)
Trainer: David Hancock  Cost: £99

This course is designed principally for non-accountants in the Voluntary & Community Sector with limited, if any, knowledge of FCR. It will build on the successful ‘Financial Management Demystified’ course introduced by Cascade in 2008 but attendance on that course is not a prerequisite for this programme, which is intended to stand on its own.

It should enable participants to grasp the underlying theory of the FCR process and apply it to their organisations in a practical way, with particular reference to the preparation of funding bids.

The course will cover:

• A basic introduction to FCR and why it is necessary to understand the concept and how to apply it
• Benefits to organisations and the needs of funders.
• Direct and indirect costs
• Understanding your own organisations costs
• Average and marginal costs
• Cost allocation methods
• Practical exercises and introduction to a simple computer model

Trainer David Hancock spent over 30 years with Lloyds Bank including appointments working as PA to its Chief Executive and in management development training. Most recently he was Regional Commercial Director for the South West. Since 1995 he has undertaken consultancy and non-executive work in the private and voluntary sectors and for 9 years he has acted as Regional Co-ordinator for Charity Bank in this region.  He is currently Chairman and Treasurer of a number of local charities. David runs Strategic Planning, Organisational Development and Financial Management programmes for Cascade and undertakes a range of in-house facilitation work with trustees and senior management.
