Want to create an environment that enables fundraising to flourish and demonstrate your commitment to the evolution of the fundraising profession? The International Advanced Diploma in Fundraising could be for you.
You will be required complete and pass seven formal written assignments to achieve this qualification. The qualification is eqivalent to level 7, and is similar in level and assessment to a Master’s degree.
You are taught via Virtual Delivery, with all sessions delivered on Zoom. You are expected to engage with the course material and your fellow students in advance, between and after the teaching blocks.
The approach is innovative; it is primarily delivered through Active Learning and Just in Time teaching approaches.
This is a demanding year-long course; you are expected to commit approximately 10-12 hours a week until the completion of the programme. This amounts to approximately 600 hours of individual study.
You will be required to submit a CV as part of the application process. You will then be asked to take part in an interview with a member of our Professional Development team.
During the course you will write several assignments drawing on your workplace or your work practice, using your experiences as examples or as the basis for some research. In some situations you will be able to adapt your assignment and be able to submit your work as a Practice Paper to the Journal of Philanthropy and Marketing. The paper will be peer reviewed and if suitable published in the journal. If you would like to know more please use this link for further information.
