What Is The Learning Institute?

The Learning Institute For Nonprofit Organizations was founded in 1996. It is a program of the Society For Nonprofit Organizations (SNPO) and a collaborative effort with Michigan State University.

The goal of the Learning Institute is to provide affordable, accessible learning experiences for all involved in the nonprofit sector: board members, paid staff, and the myriad of volunteers that make it all work.
