Educational Programs

The Fundraising Leadership Academy is a cohort offered in partnership with Time, Talent, & Treasure. It is designed especially for central Ohio development professionals or executive directors who are serious about focusing on fundraising best practices and willing to share openly and learn from peers. The course features a robust fundraising curriculum, along with modules that allow nonprofit leaders to meet with other development professionals and potential Columbus-based corporate funding partners. Once a development professional completes this cohort, they are automatically inducted into an alumni group, which includes ongoing development opportunities. To be eligible, participants should have at least three years of experience. It is recommended that participants be full-time paid staff of the nonprofit they are representing. Volunteers, board members, and part-time staff are not eligible for this program due to the nature of the work and time commitment. This program is best suited for nonprofits located in and with a focus on central Ohio.
