NELI: Nonprofit Leadership Training & Development
Since 2004, The Nonprofit Executive Leadership Institute (NELI) has helped nonprofit leaders become more effective agents of change.
About Our Nonprofit Leadership Certificate and Training Programs
We believe in the power of people to transform their lives and their communities. We understand that no one individual can institute transformative change alone. We know that change makers need allies and a supportive community.
Our trainers foster that community feeling and create a learning environment that invites you to stretch beyond your comfort zone. Our programs provide a balance between cultivating your growth as an individual leader and helping you strengthen your skills in organizational capacity building.
NELI is cohort-based. We want you to learn as much from one another as you do from our faculty. You will gain a network of peers and create connections that will last beyond your graduation.
Leading with Impact: Nonprofit Executive Certificate
We created the Leading with Impact: Nonprofit Executive Certificate to support your leadership journey. Our curriculum challenges both seasoned and new leaders to advance their skills and put the information learned into immediate practice.
Set Your Sights on Organizational Leadership
Set Your Sights on Organizational Leadership will help you gain the tools you need to broaden your perspective to think and act systemically. This program provides concrete systems thinking tools you can apply to analyze complex situations and foster a culture of organizational learning.
