At AFP Northeast Ohio, we’re committed to delivering a year-round lineup of educational programs designed to inspire, educate, and empower fundraisers at every stage of their careers. Whether you’re new to the profession, exploring a career in fundraising, or a seasoned expert, we have sessions tailored just for you!
Our programs feature guest speakers from local, regional, and national stages, offering fresh perspectives on a wide array of topics. From insights for small development shops to strategies for large organizations across diverse industries, we ensure our content is relevant, actionable, and impactful.
These sessions are thoughtfully curated by our dedicated Professional Development Committee—an incredible team of member volunteers. We’re always looking for passionate individuals to join us in shaping programs that meet the evolving needs of our membership. Together, we can continue creating timely, engaging, and valuable learning experiences.
If you are interested in speaking at a professional development event, we welcome you to submit an application to speak at a professional development session. The committee will then review your application and contact you directly to confirm your participation.
For questions about current or future programming, please contact this year’s professional development committee.
