Welcome
The Grantmaking School offers the first university-based program for teaching the techniques and ethics of advanced grantmaking specifically to foundation grantmaking professionals. We craft our curriculum to meet the practical needs of experienced grantmakers on topics such as strategic grantmaking, due diligence, ethics and accountability.
Our courses address the complex work of foundation grantmaking professionals who are central to foundation effectiveness.
Grantmakers also play a pivotal role in assessing needs, analyzing solutions and improving lives within the communities they serve. Advanced education equips them to maximize the impact of their grantmaking in the face of increasingly complex and seemingly intractable social problems.
Our Advanced Grant Portfolio Management Series debuts in Fall 2008!
