THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED
The process of transforming your idea into an operating organization can be complicated. This workshop is designed to provide all the information you need to start a successful nonprofit organization -- beginning with an understanding of why you may or may not want to start a nonprofit organization and what other opportunities may be available to you.
By working closely with the easy-to-use Handbook for Starting a Successful Nonprofit, the session will lead participants through the step-by-step process for incorporating and applying for tax-exempt status. The Handbook is included in the workshop fee and contains all the forms necessary for starting a nonprofit.
Register early as the workshop has a limited number of participants to make sure that there is plenty of time for questions and answers about each potential organization’s specific needs. Please note that this session does not include legal advice and is recommended for those who have not yet filed Form 1023 (the Application for Recognition of Exemption).
The workshop price includes the Handbook for Starting a Successful Nonprofit. If you already own the Handbook, registration for the workshop alone is $64. Please note that if you have the book already you must register with the downloadable registration form by mail or fax, and NOT online.
Technology Requirements
This training is hosted in Adobe Connect. You will need a computer with a reliable high-speed internet connection to view the training. (While Adobe Connect does have a mobile app, its functionality is limited and does not support all the engagement tools that MCN uses during virtual trainings. Therefore, they do not recommend using a smartphone or tablet to view the training.)
You will also need a phone as you will be interacting with the trainer and other participants via voice; you can’t use computer speakers/microphone to participate in this training.
Information about how to log into this training will be emailed to you prior to the start of the training.
FAQS
Will the session be recorded? Because of the highly interactive nature of this training, which will include ongoing conversation via chat and polls, it will not be recorded.
Can registrations be shared? To achieve the best possible learning outcomes during this training, each participant needs to have their own connection to the virtual classroom, which means registrations can't be shared. Participants will be actively engaging with the trainer via chat and polls, and thus each needs to have their own keyboard, computer, and connection to the training.
