Customized Training

Build the capacity of your community by bringing a customized training to your city or region. Our interactive curricula are designed for up to 35 participants to explore the strategic considerations in creating and operating a successful nonprofit center and/or shared services program. Topics covered can include ownership and governance structures, financing options, program development and real estate issues. Peer networking opportunities and hands‐on project planning are built into the seminar.

The customized process provides your team with a tested roadmap for project development, including real world examples and interactive activities that will move your plan forward.

 

Community Needs Assessment

Feasibility Study

Careful planning is a key component in developing a successful nonprofit center or shared services program. NCN can help you put together revenue projections and financial models and conduct due diligence to determine how much your project will really cost.

 

Project Review

Project Development

Creating a nonprofit center requires a large cross‐sector team of stakeholders and industry professionals. Who is coordinating all of the pieces and making sure that your interests are still driving the project? NCN can help you find an experienced project manager to oversee your development process from start to finish.
