Find Local Consultants and Trainers
The following professional nonprofit consultants and trainers have joined the new Nonprofit Consultants & Trainers Network in Kalamazoo County. The purposes of the Network are to:
- Support the capacities of individuals, organizations, and the nonprofit sector, as a whole, to continually improve and develop the strategies and skills necessary to sustain themselves and carry out their mission-driven work;
- Continue to increase their skills in working with the nonprofit sector;
- Network and collaborate among themselves to enhance the skill sets brought to area nonprofit organizaions;
- Support the work of ONEplace @ kpl.
Each consultant or trainer (C/T) has completed an extensive registration package, which includes his/her resume, ONEplace Code of Ethics, and reference reviews.
Before contacting consultants or trainers to work with you or your organization, please determine your objectives, and review How to Select and Work with Consultants and the Nonprofit Code of Ethics for Working With Consultants and Trainers. Then, contact consultants or trainers with the areas of expertise you are looking for to further assess the ‘fit’ of skills and personalities between the C/T and the organization.
If you would like help clarifying the expertise and scope your organization may best benefit from working with a consultant or trainer, please contact ONEplace for assistance.
