In this comprehensive training, you’ll learn the tools and systems that will help you take a disciplined approach to effectively managing your fundraising program in a way that honors your donors and your staff.

This comprehensive training runs in tandem with our certification courses in Major Gifts & Mid-Level Fundraising, so your entire team can learn the same language and implement a consistent system.

Participants who complete the course in full will become Veritus Scholars.

“I brought my team of fundraisers to VGA so we could speak a common language. We have experienced tremendous success implementing The Veritus Way, and I would recommend putting every MGO through this course.”

“I’ve been in major gifts fundraising for 14 years and it was time for some fresh thinking. Every module of this course had something to offer. I would highly recommend this as a course for honing skills of major gifts program managers or execs needing to build a skill set”

Description:

Certification Course for Fundraising Managers and Executives

Management of a major gift program requires knowledge, skills and tools rarely taught in school. And if you’re coming from other areas of fundraising or non-profit management, there are differences you need to be aware of.

Does any of this speak to you?

Ashley Jacobs“Last year I became an MGO; I was nervous and unsure. But after spending time in Veritus trainings and coaching sessions, I quickly learned how straight-forward major gift work is, and that building authentic, real relationships is fundamental. Now, I’ve fallen in love with this profession and have found meaning and purpose. I can’t say enough good about Veritus Group and how they’ve helped me develop into a successful MGO.”
