FIRM for Program Directors & Department Leaders

FIRM for Program Directors is a one-day workshop that provides program directors and department leaders with a deeper understanding of the financial processes, planning, and decision making that support strong program and organizational sustainability. Participants will learn:

  • program level financial modeling,
  • strategic budgeting, and
  • financial reporting to build confidence and competence in making decisions that balance assets and outcomes (aka money and mission) for individual programs and the organization at large.

This daylong workshop prepares program directors to make informed contributions to the nonprofit budgeting process and provides future leaders with a framework for thinking about nonprofit accountability and sustainability. Nonprofits are encouraged to send a team of program managers/directors to be trained together.

The fee for Nonprofit Montgomery members is $20 (up to a group of 4 people). The fee for non-members is $270 per organization.

When: May 17, 9:00am – 4:00pm
Where: 6010 Executive Blvd. Suite 200, Rockville, MD 20852
