About the Course

This course introduces you to the nonprofit sector, nonprofit organizations, and the concepts of leadership and governance. While this course has been developed with North American culture in mind, we do appreciate that in other parts of the world the nature of the nonprofit sector, nonprofit organizations, nonprofit leadership and governance may not be the same. Nevertheless, it is our hope that much of the course content will still be of value to those in other parts of the world.

Week 2: Questions to be explored this week are: What is leadership at the governance level and how is it different from management? What is good governance and why does it matter? What is a board of directors? Week 3: This week's questions: What roles do board members play in nonprofit organizations? Broadly speaking, what are boards responsible for and how do they go about their work? What are some of the issues that challenge the board's ability to go its work? Week 4: At this stage, you are asked to review the course content, submit a written assignment (known lightheartedly as a BEAR (Board Effectiveness Readiness Assessment), and take two multiple choice Readiness Assurance Tests (known similarly as RATs). One RAT will assess knowledge and reading comprehension and the other will test application of knowledge within a practical case. Week 5: We will encourage you to discuss the RATs in the discussion forums and take them again should you wish to change any of your answers based on the information exchanged....

Este curso me ha dado una visi贸n clara y pr谩ctica del funcionamiento de las organizaciones sin 谩nimo de lucro. Aprend铆 sobre los distintos tipos de entidades, su rol en la sociedad y c贸mo son reguladas. Tambi茅n comprend铆 la importancia de una buena gobernanza y del liderazgo efectivo en la junta directiva. Me ayud贸 a reconocer los desaf铆os que enfrentan estas organizaciones y c贸mo abordarlos. En general, el curso fortaleci贸 mi inter茅s y compromiso con el trabajo social y comunitario.
