CFRE Refresher Course - POSTPONEDDue to unforeseen circumstances, we have decided to postpone are CFRE Refresher Course to later this year. Those who have already registered are entitled to receive a full refund or can apply their registration to the new date later this year. Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. Program Overview The AFP CFRE Refresher Course offers development professionals an opportunity to review the main components of a complete fundraising program. It is an intensive program intended to provide an overview, organized around the domains of the Certified Fundraising Executive (CFRE) exam, rather than on specific fundraising strategies. This course helps participants identify gaps in their knowledge by working through abbreviated case studies referred to as “caselets.” Participation in the course may assist individuals in learning or reviewing concepts covered on the CFRE exam as detailed in the Test Content Outline provided by CFRE International on its website. The course consists of an introductory chapter and six content chapters corresponding with the six CFRE test domains. Each domain chapter opens with a list of the domain competencies appearing in the CFRE Test Content Outline. Key knowledge areas for each domain – also from the Test Content Outline – follow, each with space allowing the participant to reflect and make personal notes for how much s/he knows about each area and what needs further study. After a brief review of key concepts by the facilitator, participants will discuss caselets that provide an opportunity to apply key knowledge areas to real-life situations. This “case process” is all about synthesizing and applying accumulated experience and knowledge – exactly what individuals will be asked to do on the CFRE exam. Full participation in the 16-hour version of the course, with more time for interactive discussion, is applicable for 16 points of CFRE Credit in Category 1.B. What the CFRE Refresher Course Is and Is Not Rationale for the Approach to the Course: In a traditional classroom, learners focus on capturing lectures and there is little time to reflect – much less digest and act – on what is being discussed. By devoting class time to application of concepts, instructors have a better opportunity to detect errors in thinking, particularly those that are widespread in a class setting. Who should attend? What will participants learn?
