FIRM for Program Directors is a day-long 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 about 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 session 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.

This session is intended for program directors and department leaders in organizations that have taken the FIRM: Financial Leadership program. Nonprofits are encouraged to send a team of program directors (up to 4) to be trained together.
