Student Ratings & Reviews
I enrolled in Nonprofit Formation & 501(c)(3) Basics expecting basics and received solid, faithful instruction. I especially valued how the pacing allowed time for prayer before each lesson; It reminded me that knowledge should lead to love and good works. Solid, reverent, and practical — exactly what I hoped for.
