Get on Board

Started in 2008, Get on Board is a single day workshop providing knowledge and skills to current board members, non-profit staff or those wishing to serve on a non-profit board.

Leaders of nonprofit organizations must maximize resources, fundraise, plan for sustainability, and strategically partner for success. Many nonprofit organizations working hard to improve our region are facing enormous challenges and are seeking energetic, talented, and qualified leaders to help them achieve their mission.

Through engaging presentations from nonprofit experts and interactive role-playing, participants learn a board member’s responsibilities and how these responsibilities relate to others within the organization. Get on Board workshop topics include:

•  strategic planning

•  effective leadership development

•  fundraising

Participants will gain increased competence and confidence to develop and maintain a well-run nonprofit organization.

Join us for our next workshop on October 5, 2024. Attendees will receive breakfast, lunch, and the opportunity to interact and create relationships with presenters, sponsors and other attendees at the event. All attendees have access to digital copies of each session, giving them the tools to serve on a nonprofit board knowledgeably and effectively, making them an asset to the organization they choose to serve.
