3. Certificate in Fundraising
• “Working in my organisation for the last two years I was
confident I knew how to do my day-to-day tasks.
Undertaking the Certificate in Fundraising challenged my
thinking and how I approached my work. I was provided
with practical tools and templates that cover all aspects
of my role. I also developed strategic and planning skills,
which are beneficial at all levels of fundraising. The
classes provide a forum for discussion with fundraisings
best. Theory was balanced with real examples. [contd.]

the tools to prepare and adapt fundraising planning in a
strategic way. [contd.]

• It also provided me with up-to-date analysis of
campaigns in other markets, their performance over time

other markets while always maintaining an Irish
perspective. I am looking forward to furthering what I
have learned and have already enrolled on the first
Diploma in Fundraising course. [contd.]
