Welcome to the NPSP Training Program! Thank you so much for investing in yourself as you learn about nonprofits and the nonprofit success pack.
First, a few housekeeping items:

What to know before class starts:
- The training program starts on January 24, 2023
- Each week we will meet two times for one and a half hours
- Tuesdays at 4 pm PT/7 pm ET
- Thursdays at 4 pm PT/ 7 pm ET
- All classes will be live, hands-on sessions over Zoom
- We will work through each week's portfolio assignments together
The course is designed so you can watch lectures and complete assignments at your own pace, but to qualify for the real world nonprofit Salesforce volunteer experience you must complete the entire portfolio.
To get the most out of your investment we highly recommend you take advantage of being on the live classes each week so you can get individualized help with your portfolio assignments and questions, and so you can connect with your classmates!
