Whether you are just starting out in fundraising or are 5 or 20 years into your profession; planning your career is always a challenge. How do I change my focus or path? How do I get to a bigger (or smaller?) organization. What’s a winning resume look like in 2020?
Our January AFP presenter, Bob Fisher, is a wealth of knowledge and experience on career advancement in development. Learn key elements of career planning: are you asking for what you need to take the next step up? Are you positioning yourself to increase your professional network, salary potential and skill set?

This workshop is all about best practices in development career planning. Bring your questions!
