Social Return on Investment, or SROI, is a system of accounting for all of the social and environmental value of your activities. Applying SROI to your work can have a whole range of benefits – from demonstrating your impact in a clear and transparent way to improving your service delivery, winning contracts and tenders to being accountable to your stakeholders, SROI helps you to maximise the potential of your social value.

Social Value UK’s Social Value & SROI Practitioner Training course is accredited by the Institute of Leadership Management and is delivered by accredited trainers and SROI practitioners. We have been delivering this training course for over seven years to over 1200 people.

Day 1 

Day one is a practical, step-by-step introduction to the SROI process. We will begin with some theory, but the process is best learnt by trying it, so candidates will learn how to develop an impact map and explore appropriate real life examples.

Day 2 

Day two covers in depth, more theoretical issues including valuation techniques and counterfactuals, as well as discussing examples of best practice at different levels of rigour.

Interested in developing deep insights into how to help scale impactful solutions as a social investor? Are you wondering how to understand the practical challenges of the different scaling strategies as scale-deep, scale-up, scale-out, network models, open source platforms and system change?

Join this unique leadership course designed for senior investors and impact leaders interested in developing effective ways to scale impact by using different strategies, according to different business and financial models.

2 days to challenge your scaling impact thinking, systematise new strategies and strengthen your network.

In a structured discussion model based on peer learning and pratical workshops we will share challenges and successes and develop frameworks on how best to finance, support and scale impactful solutions at different levels of the pyramid of scaling.

The discussions will be moderated by Filipe Santos, Chaired Professor of Social Entrepreneurship and EVPA Board member, who has supported the scaling of hundreds of social entrepreneurs worldwide in training programs at INSEAD and Católica-Lisbon for over a decade, and who will bring frameworks to challenge the thinking around scaling impact and frame cases and experiences shared by participants.

Are you a social investor, a philanthropist, a corporate foundations leader or a policy maker interested in developing frameworks for scaling impact?

The forum is designed to provide business delegates with the guidance to develop and implement robust human rights strategies, whilst remaining compliant with all emerging legislation.

By bringing together a broad range of the key players, we’re able to get to crux of the big issues. Highlights include:

• Hear from IHRB, BT and Sky on the benefits of forming multi-stakeholder initiatives and overcoming barriers to collaboration
• Co-op, Freedom Fund, BHRRC and Baroness Lola Young debate whether modern slavery legislation has driven change or solely compliance
• Are audits a waste of time, or an effective regulatory tool? Nokia, Manor Fresh and The Body Shop provide their perspectives
• Hilton, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and Nestlé on the effects of emerging legislation, what compliance will require and how much it will cost
• John Lewis, Mattel and JLL join us to discuss how internal collaboration makes for an effective, meaningful modern slavery statement

We’ll also run a number of practical sessions to discuss: supply chain risk mapping, responsible recruitment, child rights, remediation, living wage and more.
