Virtual Offering
The live, two-part series will be held from June 18–19, 2020


This intense, two-part workshop for deans, department chairs, and other academic leaders focuses on building and articulating a compelling Opportunity Story for their department or program. During each 4-hour session, participants will join a real-time, facilitator-led, virtual classroom and experience group discussion, video case studies, and opportunities for real-world application. Participants also explore donor motivation and the roles that academic leaders play in helping potential donors make significant contributions to the institution.

Because a strong working relationship with their development partner is essential to academic leaders’ success in fundraising, participants will also receive a shareable link to a one-hour, on-demand virtual primer to prepare their development partners to work with them optimally following the session.
