Special to The PREVIEW

The Community Resource Center (CRC) would like to invite all executive directors and nonprofit board members in the southwest region to register for a one-day strategic planning training on Dec. 16.

Executive directors and board members will leave with the tools and resources necessary to craft a compelling and relevant strategic plan that is practical, measurable and can be implemented without the cost of hiring an outside consultant.

The training will cover topics including: recognition of what a strategic plan is and is not; understanding different processes by which strategic planning can be accomplished; identifying the core elements that are the foundations of a strategic plan; and craft compelling goals, objectives and activities strategies for implementation.

The training will be taught by Maria Fabula, president and CEO, and Rebecca Gorrell, director of education and leadership development.

The training will be held Wednesday, Dec. 16, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Durango Public Library, 1900 E. 3rd Ave., Durango. Cost is $55 for early birds (ends Dec. 9) and $70 regular price. Go to www.regonline.com/stratplanSW1216 to register today.

Priority registration is being offered to those nonprofit professionals who work in the southwest region. If you work outside of that region but would like to attend the training, contact Gorrell at gorrell@crcamerica.org to get your name put on the waitlist.
