As a fundraiser with 10 years experience, it's difficult to find training which genuinely teaches something new. The National Arts Fundraising School certainly did that throughout and provided inspiration for a new corporate membership programme. I would recommend the course wholeheartedly, to new and experienced fundraisers alike.

The National Arts Fundraising School is an incredibly stimulating, thorough and incisive course that has increased my confidence and motivation.
