Courses for Funders and Philanthropists

It is a good time to reveiw the course offerings in Philanthropy for June and July. I am proud to be associated with courses at 2 universties offering these courses:

The NYU Academy for Grantmaking and Funder Education is the oldest and most comprehensive training program for funders, families, and philanthropists anywhere and the only University with a full certificate in Grantmaking. Summer courses include the Mini-Intensive for new Grantmakers, the introductory course, the course on how grantmakers can understand and utilize evaluations, a day long workshop exclusively for families, and Level II of the workshop on grantmaking strategies in this economic environment.

Penn is now offering a new week-long course on effective philanthropy. In cooperation with its Center for High Impact Philanthropy and a number of other organizations, this seminar will be Penn's first offering of what we hope will be many teaching funders.

I hope to see many of you at these educational offerings. Please see the websites on the left to register. Or be in touch off line for more information.
