Who it’s for…

NFLA is built for nonprofit leaders who want practical, real-world finance skills:

  • Executive Directors and CEOs seeking clear financial strategy and stronger decision making

  • Finance Directors, Managers, and CFOs ready to sharpen budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow tools

  • Program and Operations Leaders who need to connect program plans to numbers and results

  • Development and Communications Leaders who want to tell a compelling financial story to donors and boards

  • Board Members and Treasurers responsible for oversight, reserves, and sustainability

  • Emerging Leaders preparing for their next role in management

Perfect for small and midsize nonprofits, organizations without a full finance team, and fast-growing groups that need stronger budgeting, reserves, and funding models. If you want confidence with the numbers and a toolkit you can use immediately, this cohort is for you.

Navigating 2025 will require strong financial leadership
