The
mission of the Non-Profit Staff Development Coalition Project is to help
staff in non-profit human services organizations reach professional and
personal excellence by protecting, nurturing, strengthening and enhancing
the staff development function in their organizations.
This will be achieved by collaboratively
working on three initiatives:
|
Staff Training
(This is
the Coalition's primary focus. This would involve identifying unmet
staff training needs and then designing, developing and delivering
relevant training activities at minimal cost.)
|
|
Transfer and Application of Learning
for Effective Job Performance
(Linked to Initiative
#1 - this would involve assessing the transfer/application of knowledge
and skills gained from staff training to the employee's job with
effective results.)
|
|
Promoting, strengthening and reinforcing
a consistent "learning culture" within Coalition member
organizations.
|
All of these initiatives ultimately support and
strengthen excellence in service delivery.
|

|
"We believe that learning is central and critical to what we do.
Continuous and progressive learning creates opportunities, challenges
how we normally see and do things, builds understanding of our missionand
strengthens community connections."
