I am happy to announce that Harvard Extension School will again offer the Nonprofit Human Resource Management course in the Spring 2022 semester.  The course introduces participants to the best practices, policies, and theories related to nonprofit human resource management. Whether you are now or plan to be an HR practitioner or a leader, manager or board member for a nonprofit organization, museum, school, or foundation, this course prepares you with the knowledge and skills needed to manage human capital in a nonprofit setting. This is also a great learning opportunity for those interested in making a career transition into the nonprofit sector.

Class meetings will be held each Wednesday in the spring semester from 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. ET beginning on January 26, 2022.  This is a live, web-based course and will include a combination of class lectures, discussions, activities, case studies, and nonprofit executives as guest speakers.

I originally created and taught this course in the Fall 2019 semester, for which I received a Dean’s Commendation for Excellence in Teaching.

Registration began today, Monday, November 8, 2021 for Nonprofit Human Resource Management MGMT E-4241. Learn more here.

Registration for Adult Learning Theories course at Harvard Extension School is now live. I am thrilled to be teaching this course, which is offered as part of the fall 2020 semester. Adult Learning Theories will be held each Tuesday from 7:20-9:20 p.m. EST beginning on September 1. It will be a an online (live) web-based delivery. 

Learning opportunities for adults are often modeled after our classes in grade school and high school. However, adults learn much differently from children, and their motivation to learn is vastly different as well. This course explores:

  • Adult learning theory and practice
  • How to engage the adult learner
  • How to provide learning opportunities that both motivate and challenge

Human resources practitioners, leaders, and trainers alike benefit from this course.
