Mentoring & Scholarships

Uncertain as to what’s next? Get one-on-one coaching from an experienced marketer at the conference in March.

DMA Nonprofit Federation members can sit with a seasoned pro to help you answer questions, such as:

• In this economy should I be worried about my career choices? Am I on the right path?
• How do I move from a small nonprofit to a large one? Will my skills transfer?
• I work for a large nonprofit and would like to move to an agency and become a consultant. Do you think I have enough experience?
• I am afraid my position is being eliminated. What should I do?
• How do I learn new skills? Should I go back to school?
• How can I advance myself in my current organization?
• How can I optimize networking opportunities?
• And more!

This is a great opportunity to get honest, real-world advice from those in the know.
