Exploring Funding Sources: e-learning (starts Tuesday 19th November 2019)

Posted by Bianca

If you can't attend our face-to-face training sessions this e-learning is for you!

Becoming reliant on one source of income is risky, considering different funding sources will help widen the funding and finance options open to you.

This interactive bite-sized e-learning will help you to consider different types of funding sources appropriate for your organisations needs, capabilities, capacity and values.

You can complete the e-leaning at your own pace, at whatever time is suitable for you, within a 2 week window.

This session will help you:

• Explore the different sources of funding and finance for charitable projects
• Consider the advantages and disadvantages of each funding source
• Identify funding sources appropriate for your organisation
• Think about your next steps required to explore potential funding sources.

Please note the e-learning is an alternative to our face-to-face training programme; the e-learning contains some hand outs and exercises featured in our Introduction to fundraising and Diversify your income sessions. 

This session is aimed at those new to fundraising who would like to explore different funding sources. It is also suitable for those who would like to reflect upon the different funding sources open to their organisations or project.

Date: Tuesday 19th November 2019 – Tuesday 3rd December 2019 (2 week window to complete)

Cost: £20.00 per person (maximum 1 place per group)

Sheffield voluntary and community groups: £10.00 per person (maximum 1 place per group)

Statutory Body/Individual Consultants: £40.00 per person

Level: Beginner

Requirements: You will require a computer/laptop and internet access. A link to the e-learning platform will be emailed on the start date.

The e-learning will take approximately 2 hours to complete, and is comprised of 3 sections:

• Getting started with fundraising
• Exploring different funding sources
• Funding options for your own project.

The interactive materials include quizzes and a short assignment which will receive written feedback from a SYFAB tutor.

Previous participants have said:

“It has given me the confidence to try new sources of funding”

“I am going to put it all into practice. Refine our processes and what we do to improve our funding applications etc..”

“I will be reviewing all the fundraising sources which are available to our club”

“I have an MSc in adult education and training and specialised in distance learning. I thought the course was well structured”
