In this episode of The Beacon Podcast, Lighthouse Counsel Senior Consultant Dr. Lilya Wagner speaks with Dr. Dwight Burlingame, a major contributor to the field of philanthropy in the United States for more than 30 years, about nonprofit education and professional development for fundraisers.
In their discussion, Dwight explores:
• The growing interest in fundraising coursework and degrees in higher education
• What sets nonprofit management and fundraising courses apart from more general business programs
• How nonprofit- and fundraising-specific education can help practitioners navigate the increasingly common intersection of nonprofit and for-profit missions
