Resource Development Training
With the advent of globalization, nonprofit managers find themselves in a far more competitive environment within which they must secure resources for the growth and sustainability of their organizations and programs.
As the helping hand of government begins to shrink in size and scope, successful nonprofit executives and volunteers are becoming ever more efficient in raising the funds they need to support their vital community programs and services.
This three-day workshop on resource mobilization aims at building the capabilities of individuals and organizations within the nonprofit sector in the domain of resource management.

It also provides the skills for conceptualizing, designing, implementing, and evaluating an efficient resource mobilization strategy for the nonprofit sector. The training provides an opportunity to acquire new contacts, build networks and partnerships, and share your experience with others in the nonprofit sector engaged in resource mobilization.
In this information-packed program, a wealth of hands-on experience is utilized to outline the critical dos and don’ts of resource mobilization.
Here, learners will learn more about the “donor pyramid,” the “engagement continuum” and other useful tools.

Testimonial
“My favorite class was the recruitment, training, & retention session. I enjoyed this session because when I accepted my job position the recruitment aspect of being the volunteer coordinator never crossed my mind. This session provided information and suggestions to successfully recruit new volunteers and to retain the volunteers that were already with the company.”
