WORKSHOPS & TRAINING AT MEMBER RATES

Members have access to Training Journeys and the opportunity to register for both in-person and virtual workshops, as well as flex trainings at deeply discounted member prices.

Last year, Mission Capital brought back the in-person training sessions for which we are renowned and cherished. This year, we are excited to offer at least one in-person training opportunity each month, alongside our virtual and flexible training options.
Workshops at Mission Capital will look and feel different this year. We've introduced new topics and carefully curated a range of durations and price points to cater to a broader audience. Members will still enjoy significant discounts on these training courses.
Harness the power of connection and collaboration with the convenience of asynchronous work through our Flex workshops. These sessions start with a virtual kick-off meeting led by our facilitation team, followed by a series of asynchronous modules. Participants will then reconvene for a one-hour session to share insights, address questions, and foster collaboration. Accessible to organizations of all sizes, these workshops provide a comprehensive and flexible learning experience.
Member organizations enjoy an additional 10% discount on top of the standard member discount when they enroll in a Workshop Journey. You can purchase these during the renewal process or by reaching out to our team for more details.
