Training Curriculum and Learning Objectives

After completing the four module, 16-hour training, participants will be able to demonstrate a broad understanding of nonprofit board governance, fiduciary responsibility, fundraising, board dynamics and the financial management of non-profit organizations. Participants will be able to effectively advocate for a social cause by describing in compelling terms how their values and strengths as corporate leaders can make deep and lasting commitments to nonprofits in the community. Current board members will be invited to participate in the second module and may opt to attend the other three modules as well. This will allow executive trainees to also learn first-hand about the realities of nonprofit life.

The modules are fast-paced and highly participatory. Each participant will receive a comprehensive Participant Guide which includes module content plus articles and information about the nonprofit sector and several valuable tools and resources on board leadership.

The program will be delivered by teams of facilitators and subject matter experts with deep experience in nonprofit management, fiscal and legal oversight, and leadership development of individuals and organizations. Learn more about the session presenters.
