In preparation for this 25th anniversary year, we set out to harness the experiences and learnings from the over 1,269 organizations we have trained, mentored and conducted research with. We then converted this wealth of information into a 3-part series of training courses on the various aspects of fund raising, that we will offer throughout 2024 until March next year.  The courses are designed to provide the knowledge and skills a fund raising professional needs to know in order to conduct a successful campaign.  


We are so excited to share these with you!

The Basic Course on Fund Raising # 76


Scheduled on June 24-26, we are holding the 76th run of our best-selling workshop -  The Basic Course on Fund Raising (BCFR). This course is designed to equip individuals and organizations with essential knowledge and skills to effectively raise funds for their programs and causes. Participants will learn the basic principles and fundamentals of successful fund raising, including planning, implementing, and evaluating various fund raising campaigns and strategies.


Attending the BCFR will benefit individuals and organizations that want to professionalize and sustain their fund raising efforts. In the past, we have had attendees from NGOs, schools, hospitals, faith-based organizations, and corporate foundations, among others. Experienced fund raisers, board members, and development leaders also attend the BCFR to acquire new fund raising skills and ideas.


The Art of Engagement: Donor Management


The Art of Engagement: Donor Management (AEDM) is a course that aims to introduce the art of building lasting relationships with donors. Participants will learn how to effectively identify, cultivate, solicit, acknowledge, recognize and retain donors, through both input sessions, samples, and exercises. The course also includes valuable information on how to determine and analyze related metrics in order to achieve fund raising success for their organizations.


This short course is designed for any passionate individual who wants to develop lasting meaningful relationships between their organization and their supporters. Whether you are a seasoned fund raiser, manager, volunteer, or new to the field, our workshop offers valuable insights and strategies to cultivate and strengthen your relationships with donors.
