We developed these courses to help gift officers become more effective at building donor relationships and more nuanced in their ability to plan gifts that are ideally suited to their donors and their organization. They show you how to raise more money by developing mutually beneficial relationships with your donors.

Each is designed to take around 2 hours, and is easily broken into independent chunks, allowing you to hit pause, review sections, and explore related core material. Courses conclude with an assessment in quiz form. Below is a selection of the reading exercises from the Major Gifts Course, “The Donor Visit.”
