Nonprofit Leadership Institute Discounts
The Nonprofit Leadership Institute (NLI) is a premier professional development resource offered by OneSource Center for Nonprofit Excellence. EXCEL is a 9-month executive leadership development program aimed at nonprofit CEO’s and Executive Directors as well as other C-suite executives and those high promise leaders who report to the executive team, providing in-depth training to enhance leadership and management skills. The ADVANCE program targets supervisors at any level, focusing on developing effective supervisory and leadership abilities. This program is most relevant for first-time managers of people within their initial one to three years as a people leader. Additionally, BUILD is for new nonprofits to build a solid foundation.
Members registering for the EXCEL or ADVANCE training programs will receive a discount of $50 for basic members and $100 for premium members (starting with Spring 2025 classes).
Retirement Plan
We are now working with Mutual of America to offer premium members participation in a 403b retirement plan, with no cost to the agency. At a time when employee retention is important, this is a great benefit for agency staff. Agencies have the option of making matching contributions, but are not required to do so. Learn more by contacting Amanda Rutan at 330-576-7012 or Amanda.Rutan@mutualofamerica.com.
Health Plan Options
We are working with Assured Partners to offer an affinity health plan option to nonprofits. This is a self-funded plan with added stop-loss coverage. As a self-funded plan, it is not bound by Affordable Care Act rules and so health histories may be required and not all agencies may qualify. We are working with Assured Partners to provide coverage for agencies with 5 or more participating staff members. A backup option is an ICHRA (Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement. Arrangement) which is an agency-funded health benefit. With an ICHRA, agencies determine a set budget to reimburse their employees for health insurance (pre-tax), and employees buy the plan that works best for them.
We have worked diligently to respond to requests for help in this area. OneSource Center and Leadership Council are working together to offer this affordable health care option to our members. Health insurance is a complicated area which our partners at Assured Partners can more fully explain. Learn more about the Fortress Plans Program Overview or contact Nick Beatty, Vice President of Employee Benefits, for more information.
Coursera Training Licenses
Thanks to a partnership with P&G, we are able to offer free licenses to Coursera online courses. Coursera offers more than 5,400 courses, Professional Certificates, and degrees from world-class universities and companies such as Duke, Stanford, University of Illinois, Google, and others. (Value: $399)
With the overwhelming number of courses, we make it easy by working with agencies to create a customized selection of courses (although a license entitled the individual to take any course available). Complete a request form and we will follow-up with next steps.
