The Standards for Excellence Institute is once again a proud sponsor of the 2015 Nonprofit Capacity Conference. This year the Institute and NCC are offering an exclusive opportunity for registrants to attend a pre-conference Pass to Excellence seminar. The Pass to Excellence seminar is designed for nonprofit leaders to acquire an in-depth knowledge of this vetted code of excellence, and to attain the resources necessary to put it into practice. During the full-day seminar, our expert Standards for Excellence staff will work with attendees to develop a tailored work plan for each organization to implement key areas outlined in the Standards for Excellence code. This plan will help leaders strengthen the management, governance, and operations of their organizations with concrete strategies and best practices. Attendees will also gain comprehensive strategies should they consider earning the Seal of Excellence through the Standards for Excellence accreditation program, or the tiered approach for recognition. The Pass to Excellence Pre-Conference and the Nonprofit Capacity Conference will take place on April 1-2, 2015 at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel in Arlington, Virginia. Discounted registration fee for both events is $378. Visit www.nonprofitcapacityconference.com for more details.
