Introduction to Board Chairs Academy

Thinking about signing up for Board Chairs Academy but want to learn more? Join us for a preview of this unique online learning and community-building experience for nonprofit board members.

Board Chairs Academy is a six-month online learning and virtual community experience to help board members of charitable organizations, associations and congregations excel at providing strategic governance to their favorite causes.

Each monthly online session is accompanied by a participant guide of handouts, readings and exercises, and features expert presentations as well as small and large group interaction for participants to share their learning.

Organizations may register as many persons as they wish, and the total fee is determined by how many are enrolled. (Registering more people generates a greater savings per person!) Organizational registration also includes two hours of complimentary board consultation, and each participant receives 150 pages of resource materials, access to six Board Chairs Academy Roundtables for additional discussions with other Academy participants, and invitation to a special LinkedIn group.

The Board Chairs Academy is a cohort learning program introduced by Third Sector Company in 2006. Over 400 organizations have participated in the United States and Canada.

Third Sector Company, Inc. is committed to advancing justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion as foundational to its programs.

We acknowledge and honor the fundamental value and dignity of all people; and we pledge our individual and organizational efforts to build respect, dignity, caring, and equitable treatment for all. As an organization, we are committed to transforming the world into one that promotes social justice and freedom from oppression, including but not limited to, racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, ageism, and ableism.

Thus, we aim to be adaptable, actively anti-racist, embracing cultural differences, and to be accessible for people who are differently resourced and differently abled. Since we do not want financial hardship to be a barrier to participation, there are several seats reserved in each of our fee-based programs for confidentially awarded scholarships. We encourage those from historically underserved communities to apply.
