Professional Forums

We all know the value of connecting with peers to share experiences, knowledge and resources. To provide greater opportunities for this learning experience, The Nonprofit Center presents its monthly Professional Forum Series. On the first Wednesday of every month, nonprofit staff in various professional capacities will have the opportunity to come together to discuss issues relating directly to their work. The forum topics rotated are Finance, Fundraising and Human Resources. Our Executive Directors’ Only forums are held on a different schedule: the first Friday of every other month.

All gatherings will be led by an individual with expertise in the issues being discussed. Here are the upcoming forums for the spring.
