This Series is currently SOLD OUT. Please
do not apply now; we will not be able to consider your
application. We will post information about future
education programs, when it is available, on this web
page.
A
continuing education series designed to improve the
effectiveness of nonprofit organizations by
strengthening boards of directors has been developed by
The Community Foundation and is being jointly sponsored by NCHS,
United Way of Greater Lafayette, and The Foundation. This series is especially
designed for the volunteer leaders on the Boards of Not-For-Profit Corporations.
The purpose of this program is to strengthen and sustain
Not-For-Profit Boards by building knowledge about
responsible oversight and governance, and effective
responses to policy and management issues faced by
today’s Not-For-Profit volunteer leaders. The continuing education series is designed for, and
limited to, Board volunteers and Executive Directors.
Leading regional and national instructors, with
expertise in topics relating to board governance and
leadership, will present information essential to
guiding and sustaining Not-For-Profits. A networking
reception with refreshments will conclude each session.
Participants must have applied by February 15, 2008, to be
considered for this continuing education series.
Selection was competitive. A limited number of seats were available. The registration fee
was $100 for the 2008
series of 10 sessions or $15 per individual session. Some scholarships
were available.
Applicants who opted to not attend all sessions still must
apply. Priority was given to those applying for the
entire series.
