Nonprofit Help Center

In these times—when the world feels chaotic, budgets are tight, and professional development often gets pushed to the back burner—we’re doing something different. ?? We’re lowering the price of our most popular online trainings to $49. ?? Not as a gimmick. Not as a limited-time trick. Just a good business decision for the foreseeable future. Why? Because we believe everyone deserves equitable access to quality professional development. And if we can make it easier for someone to grow their career, build capacity in their organization, or simply feel a little more confident in their role—we’re going to do it. Our newly priced 3-hour certificates are now just $49 each and cover topics like nonprofit advocacy, supporting board fundraising, strategic planning, and more. They’re self-paced, mobile-friendly, and built specifically for nonprofit professionals. No strings. Just smart, accessible learning that meets you where you are. www.meritnonprofit.com #nonprofitprofessionals #professionaldevelopment #workforcedevelopment #nonprofitleadership #nonprofittraining #equityineducation #accessiblelearning #capacitybuilding #missiondrivenwork #learnandgrow

?? Nonprofit associations are the unsung heroes of professional development. You advocate, connect, support—and offer your members amazing benefits like job boards, toolkits, and access to camaraderie and community. Here’s a new benefit we’d love to see every association offer: ?? The Certificate in Nonprofit Capacity-Building, which is designed for real-life nonprofit work—microlearning-based, inclusive, and has been proven by thousands of learners to help professionals grow in their roles. To make it easy to test out, we’re offering one full certificate license at 50% off (just $399) for the next 10 days to any association. Use it yourself, assign it to a board or staff member, or even re-sell it, and experience what your members could gain. ?? Learn more or grab the promo here: https://lnkd.in/esYyFdke ?? Want to explore full licensing options? Let’s talk. P.S. We also just repriced our topic-based nonprofit certificates to just $49 each—a great resource to share directly with members for affordable, practical learning. #NonprofitLeadership #AssociationBenefits #ProfessionalDevelopment #CapacityBuilding #Microlearning #NonprofitTraining #MemberValue

We love the term "#connectivism"! In the world of online learning (and expecially on our nonprofit teams), this is a powerful but often overlooked theory that shapes how people actually grow. It’s the idea that learning happens through networks—between people, systems, and sources of knowledge—not just through what one person knows. In other words, your ability to learn is tied to your ability to connect. This concept is core to how we design our training, and we'd challenge you to consider how training looks in your organization: ?? Are you focusing on practical application within real-world nonprofit environments? ?? If self-paced learning is a part of your professional development, is it connected to community support? ?? Are learning pathways build to tie insights to actionable outcomes? The goal isn’t just to help your team members learn more. It’s to build a smarter, stronger network of people and tools that support your work every day. That’s how nonprofit capacity grows—not in isolation, but through connection. #nonprofittraining #professionaldevelopment #connectivism #capacitybuilding #nonprofitleadership #onlinelearning #learnandgrow #workforcedevelopment #missiondrivenwork #accessiblelearning
