Jan. Class at TCC

Lillian Bailey has announced the January Classes at the Tidewater Community College (Va) Academy of Nonprofit Excellence.
Upcoming January classes are Program Evaluation and the Revised IRS
990. We are processing registrations for classes through April. Be sure
to register early to ensure a seat is available for you.

January 14 & 21: Program Evaluation with Fran Butterfoss
Outcomes based evaluations are increasingly required by nonprofit
funders as verification that the nonprofits are indeed helping their
constituents. While we do not need to be experts, it is imperative that
we have an understanding of the process, data analysis and how to use
the results to make decisions about the program being evaluated.  In
this two-day course learn ways to determine effective organizational
performance and results. Topics include: Basic concepts for determining
organizational performance; strategies for incorporating results;
program planning; program implementation; and justifying resource
requirements.

January 26: The Revised IRS 990 with Greg Bergethon, Esq and Derek
Holser, Esq from Lentz Bergethon, PLC

Your organization’s Form 990 is one of your most important documents.
It is the world’s window into your organization. The IRS, donors,
funders and the press review your Form 990. Get a handle on the new form
and its many new information requirements designed to enhance
transparency and accountability. In addition, you will learn the 10
commandments of board governance and explore the impact of new required
policies ranging from those addressing conflict of interest to
whistleblower.  You will leave this course ready to ensure that your
organization’s policies are in compliance with the IRS.

If you have any questions regarding courses, please let me know.
