Invest in Your Institution’s Future Success:

The Training You Need for These Challenging Times

Now more than ever, our ability to understand the changing economic landscape and respond with creative fundraising strategies is essential to the vitality of our communities.

The Council for Resource Development  2010 Specialist Training, hosted by Mt. Wachusett Community College, promises to be one of the most comprehensive and timely professional development opportunities for 2010.

This two-week training will provide you with a unique vantage point of the current economic climate and its impact on private and public fundraising.  The experiential learning environment, case-based classes, and invaluable networking will provide you with the essential elements common to private fundraising, public grant seeking and best practice office operations.

Tuition: $1500
Class size is limited!

Return on Investment:

"The college has already begun to see a return on investment from my training in 2009. In four months since returning from the training, we have hired a grant writer and received our first $750,000 grant and have applied for many more stimulus funds. We also have received a $300,000 federal appropriation which was the direct result of the training and my legislative visit while we were in Washington DC during the program. We are in the process of recruiting new board members, have revised the foundation's by-laws and have begun a $100,000 fundraising campaign."
