WHY IS THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION DOING THIS?
Berks County Community Foundation’s Nonprofit Management Certificate program was designed to help local nonprofit leaders improve or renew their management and leadership skills close to home.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The Community Foundation’s board of directors approved a grant that covers the majority of the cost of the program. However, each organization is asked to contribute $500 for each individual who is selected to join the cohort.
HOW OFTEN WILL THE PROGRAM RUN?
The program is offered every two years.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE?
This professional development opportunity is designed exclusively for Berks County’s nonprofit executive directors and high-potential staff members. The cohort is capped at 20 participants. Some of the classes are meant to be attended by a board member, too. There is no additional cost for the board member to accompany the executive director or staff member to those classes.
