The Fundamentals of Effective Board Involvement

Are you a new or prospective non-profit board member who is unsure of what you may be getting into? Are you a more experienced board member who doesn't feel that your board participation is all that it could be?

If so, welcome to The Fundamentals of Effective Board Involvement!

In The Fundamentals of Effective Board Involvement course, you will:

  • Explore your objectives, roles, and responsibilities, and learn about effective board practices
  • Find updated board information and an energy boost for board veterans
  • Meet fellow "students", Carlos and Debra, and learn from their experiences
  • Apply your knowledge to real situations.

By the end of this course, you will be prepared to demonstrate competent, passionate, accountable and ethical leadership in your organization.

You can take this course at your own pace, but to cover all subjects and activities from Module 1 through 5 should take about 2 to 3 hours of work.

To get the most out of this course, do all the activities ... this way, you can put into practice what you are learning. You may even want to share some of the materials and activities with the rest of your board, and work on them as a team.

Ready to make a difference in your organization? Then let's get started.
