Follow your passion, pick your nonprofit
The Pick Group is a diverse network of young professionals interested in engaging with and bettering their community while pursuing excellence in the workplace.
As part of bettering our community, we are proud to offer our Board Development Training Program to prepare young professionals to serve in leadership roles on local non-profits.
The Pick Group Board Development Training Program (BDTP) is designed to educate participants on the responsibilities of serving on nonprofit boards. During this seven-month program (January to July), community leaders will facilitate each class session providing insight and focused training about the roles and responsibilities of board participation and the importance of professional relationships with nonprofits. Topics covered include Governance, Financial Responsibilities, Strategic Planning, Marketing, Board Recruitment, Legal Issues, and Fundraising.
For just $75 for Pick members ($100 non-members), you'll graduate from BDTP with the skills and education necessary to serve on any Riverside community board with confidence – and make a difference!
