Hello AFHTO Members,
AFHTO/CharityVillage Partnership
This is a reminder of our current partnership with CharityVillage, offering our teams a range of free governance courses. Over 100 members across 25 teams took advantage of these sessions last year with positive feedback.
Each course offers high value information and practical resources that you can download and keep on hand for future reference. Courses are offered virtually in a self paced format. You have 3 months to complete the course once started. Below is a list of courses teams may choose from. If you would like extra online course learning in addition to today’s Governance Webinar (March 6th), please sign up by filling out this quick survey below. Deadline to sign up is March 14th, 2025.
Note: Please fill out the survey to indicate which courses you are interested in. Though there are prices in these course descriptions, these courses are free through AFHTO.
