157. Back to Basics: Professional Development - Jonathan McCoy, CFRE and Becky Endicott, CFRE

We're closing out our summer Friday Back-to-Basics series with one final conversation about the conversation that grounded every one of these past 11 conversations: professional development. It may not be popular, but we're going for it. And we're talking about why you need to be fighting for your own growth in our sector. Will be pointing you to teachers who can help (some are even free!) then we're going to be dropping the mic on what we've been working on for nearly a year to revolutionize the nonprofit professional development sector - for good.
