The Campaign Manager Level 1 certification was developed to help practitioners in campaign planning and management run successful campaigns despite the challenges they face: a lack of professional training opportunities, highly variable demands and low public trust. It is a private certification for practitioners who have led or taken part in campaigns and have knowledge of campaign management.

The Philanthropy Advisor and Educator program was developed to train senior professionals who, drawing on insight into the philanthropy sector, can plan and run professional consulting and education programs, and to bring consultants and nonprofit professionals from across the country together into a single community, building a trusted network. It aims to work in line with the vision of clients and donors.

Through one-on-one mentorship with Certified Fund Raising Executives, participants strengthen their capacity for financial development in fundraising campaigns.
