Having completed the ISM requirements, both received their certification at an award ceremony on the final day of the 2015 Advancement Academy in Virginia, US.

Mr Beard said: “ISM workshops are terrific in highlighting best practice for advancement in top schools around the world.

“They provide skills, they help apply theory to practice in individual school settings – and most importantly help you focus on how you can make the best contribution to your school.”

Mrs Skinner added: “Advancement is a critical part of any independent school and being recognized as an International Advancement Professional is very exciting.

“Saltus has supported my participation in various workshops that ISM offers and this has been critical to my receiving this certification. I look forward to working with Jon as we move our Advancement Team at Saltus forward and continue to best support our faculty and student body.”
