The Board Leadership Calgary 2017 Learning Event has combined both of our popular events into one (Board Basics & Make Dollars Make Sense). The event is currently sold out!

This One-day learning event will feature a number of engaging and informative basic level workshops that will focus on board governance fundamentals, not-profit funding and financial management, and overall best practices within the voluntary sector. The event will also provide helpful resources, new ideas and networking opportunities.
