Greetings! 
You probably have a favorite charity that helps the homeless, raises money for cancer or rescues animals. There are millions of nonprofits around the world, over 3.5 million in the US and India; and these nonprofits initiate, plan, execute, and manage projects every day.
We are introducing a new resource that you can use to help that favorite nonprofit run their projects more efficiently and effectively. The Project Management Nonprofit Practicum is a twelve hour workshop-training program for nonprofit organizations, which includes an instructor manual with notes and templates.
The workshop was developed by developed by Millersville's Nonprofit Resource Network (NRN) with grant funding from the Project Management Institute Educational Foundation (PMIEF) and can be downloaded for no cost from the PMIEF website.
We encourage you to visit the website and view this new resource that you can use to help your local nonprofit manage their tasks and programs more successfully.
Your friends at the PMI Educational Foundation
