CNM provides pop-up workshops, ranging from one-hour lunch and learns to half-day seminars. These workshops are designed with relevant topics to equip nonprofit professionals with the information they need within a short timeframe.
Funders Forums
The CNM Funders Forum is your opportunity to interact with leaders of prominent local organizations and learn what they look for when funding nonprofits! Representing community and family foundations and financial institutions, our highly qualified and experienced panel will share their funding priorities and processes, as well as exclusive insights to help with your grant applications.
Custom Training
CNM offers fully customized training on a wide variety of topics. We are here to simplify the process—we’ll help you identify your precise training needs and create a personalized, high-impact experience that moves your mission forward.
The CNM Nonprofit Management Certificate Program provided insight to other areas of a nonprofit organization that I wasn’t as familiar with such as HR, Board Management, Volunteers, Organizational Risk, etc. Now, I have a great overview of managing and running a nonprofit.
