Board Boot Camp is a training designed to benefit those new to board service, as well as those who are already familiar with it to learn additional best practices and be well-positioned to become leaders in the community. This session covers key terms, processes, and questions related to joining and serving on a Board of Directors.

You already have what nonprofits are looking for.

Just bring your skills and an open mind. The professional experience you already have in areas such as business management, finance, law, marketing, operations, design, or education can have a profoundly positive impact on your community when matched to the right nonprofit.

 

Attendees of Board Boot Camp are invited to attend Nonprofit Board Speed Dating, where you get to meet nonprofits looking for new board members. Board Speed Dating will be held on Thursday, December 5th, 5-8 pm in Elmsford.
