Overview

Off the shelf (OTS)

The Policy Foundations Programme is designed to develop new and current policy professionals by encouraging structured policy making through clarity on situation, evidence, options and solutions.


The flexible programme uses a mixture of interactive learning, expert support, networking and practical work on a bespoke case study to bring to life the policy making process for attendees and outline their role within it. A stretch task is set between each module to advance and embed learning.
