PLANNING FOR THIS VIRTUAL EVENT
This virtual program is comprised of 8 modules focused on major giving. The entire program is offered within a 13-week window so that all participants are given the opportunity to progress at their own pace and take breaks as needed. It is uniquely designed to ensure that the material is absorbed thoroughly and retained, by limiting your completion to no more than one module per week.
All modules are designed to require approximately 3-5 hours to complete. This time is recommended for readings, podcasts, webinars and application assignments. In addition to the required material, you'll have the opportunity to participate in a series of live Zoom calls with your class and facilitator, giving you the opportunity to connect with your peers in the Network who are moving through the material and living many of the same experiences at their local United Ways. The Zoom series' schedule is determined by availability of the class. Though recommended, they are not mandatory and are recorded so you may go back and listen at any time.
