These three experts have created a short course dedicated to teaching you all the necessary elements of how to dive into the world of fundraising. Included in the course are modules on getting comfortable with the lingo of fundraising, how to begin to integrate it into your student affairs role, and finally, taking your current efforts to the next level. This short course will include pre-recorded content that will allow you to further connect with these student affairs fundraising experts.
