1.5 CFRE Credits: An investment in your career.
As more uncertainty rattles the markets, it’s more important than ever to make planned giving an integral pillar that sustains your organization and helps weather the storm. Focusing on legacy giving creates long term stability.

This course qualifies for 1.5 CFRE credits.
