We will have a networking breakfast before the program.

Testimonials
Not only did the training cover the full range of practical topics that a non-profit leader needs to know, but it also reaffirmed my belief that working in a non-profit is more rewarding and fulfilling than a job in any other sector.
I really enjoyed the course and have learnt a great deal. Really appreciate all the effort you have put into the course and look forward to continuing to learn and grow with your guidance.
The event was so well thought-out and organized— and it seemed to me an especially fabulous crop of candidates. Very impressive folks! Thank you on behalf of Rise — your program has really helped our organization immeasurably.
It was so helpful to hear all the information and to hear from such great speakers. I know it takes a lot of time to put these presentations together, and I just want you to know that they do make a difference and they are appreciated.
