IMPORTANT! This course is comprised of four online classes scheduled over consecutive weeks. Each class is one hour, from 9-10am PT. Dates are Feb. 16, Feb. 23, March 2 and March 9.
Who will benefit:
Staff in large and small nonprofits charged with recruiting, working with volunteers or a board, writing proposals, working with media, running a website, raising money, training staff, inspiring action…and more.
Course materials:
All students will receive a copy of Andy Goodman’s booklet, Storytelling as Best Practice during the four-week session. No other reading is required.
The H word:
Between classes, students will be asked to do a little light homework: you’ll write stories (of 750 words or fewer) and refine these drafts over successive weeks. Completing homework assignments is not mandatory, but using time between classes to develop and hone your stories is the best way to exercise your new storytelling skill. (It can also allow you to complete this course with as many as three polished stories.)
