Nonprofit Skills: Measuring Progress for Board Members

You explore different ways of gathering information, analyzing data to measure desired outcomes as well as how to monitor and assess the progress of the board itself. Three case studies enable you to apply what you have learned to real-world situations, with support materials that help you measure your own organization’s progress.
This course can be applied to the Nonprofit Skills: Board Fundamentals Certificate.
