HOD 6420 Nonprofit Management and Strategy in Community Organizations
Graduate
3 Credits |
As nonprofits, community organizations face many of the
same managerial, economic, and financial issues as other types of organizations. However, there are also unique challenges, such as the initial
incorporation and qualification as a not-for-profit organization and serving
the special concerns of the community. This course looks at the operating
environment of nonprofit entities in the community, similarities and differences from the for-profit model, and key strategies for planning, analysis
and decision-making. The focus is on the following three areas: economic
and financial considerations, the legal environment, and managerial strategies and board relations. |

Grants, Policy, and Administration
Graduate
3 Credits |
Grants from government and private sources provide crucial funding
to universities, K-12 schools, hospitals, law enforcement agencies, social service agencies, and non-profit organizations. There is a constant
demand for grant funding and for grant personnel who understand the
range and complexity of grant funding sources. This course will ensure
participants gain a practical understanding of grant theory, grant policy,
grant funding research methods, and effective application of that knowledge in order to secure and/or disseminate appropriate grant funding for
their organization or project. Since this course is designed to focus on
grant policy development and grant administration, a primary focus will be
placed on developing skills related to organizational internal and external
strategic planning, capacity building and the creative and disciplined execution of grant funds. |
