Leadership Training Fund Development

On Thursday, Nov. 22, 2018, the Adult Literacy and Skills Development Program held a leadership training workshop on "Fund Development through Innovative Approaches". The facilitator was Ms. Debbie Hagman, Community Development Officer, from Alberta Culture and Tourism. The topic attracted around 30 participants from different cultural backgrounds to attend the training. They reported that the knowledgeable and experienced facilitator not only provided informative and practical training to them but also brought a lot of materials to the workshops, which they could take home to continuously learn. They stated that they learned a lot of knowledge and skills about fundraising from the workshop. That knowledge will benefit both their community development and personal development. The Adult Literacy and Skills Development Program held the leadership training workshop quarterly. This year the theme of the leadership training was 'Developing Strategic Leadership Skills'. Once participants complete four sections of the training, they will receive a Proof of Complement certificate from AHC.  Some of them have already finished their four sections of training. They will receive their certificates at 'Learning Celebration' which will be help at AHC on Dec. 6. View images from the event below.
