The Healing Journey of Grief and Loss
Mind-Body Tools for Deeper Wellness
Designed for psychotherapists, social workers, psychiatric nurses, healthcare professionals and clergy, this intensive training provides an overview of key issues related to the cycle of grief-loss-renewal. The experience of grief can come to us in many different ways, including: the death of a loved one; loss of family, friends or community; a medical or psycho-spiritual crisis; divorce or relationship breakup; the loss of a career, job or home; the challenges of aging or disability; and the loss of our health/vitality/ physical/sexual functioning.
Mounting evidence indicates that mind-body practices, especially guided imagery, can decrease anxiety and depression and lead to a deeper sense of well-being. Explore stress resilience, somatic awareness, creative expression and guided imagery as therapeutic tools through active and experiential learning. Gain fresh perspectives and new ways to think about the mind-body connection, along with practical and innovative techniques to use with your clients. Our focus is on cultivating compassionate therapeutic presence and positive mind-body states, rather than on pathology. Expand your model of therapy to become more comprehensive, collaborative and creative.

Nonprofit Ethics and Compliance
Starting Your Own Nonprofit Organization
Because they rely on the public’s trust, nonprofit organizations must adhere to the highest ethical standards; even a hint of impropriety could jeopardize a nonprofit’s reputation, its fundraising, and eventually its mission. At the same time, nonprofits with 501 (c)(3) status must be scrupulous in their compliance with federal and state laws and regulations. This course provides a detailed introduction to nonprofit ethics and compliance, examining a range of topics including: mission and vision statements; governance policies; conflicts of interest; fundraising ethics; IRS compliance; state laws and regulations; and the role of the compliance officer. This self-paced course, filled with videos and interactive case studies, will help you understand one of the most important areas of nonprofit management.
This online course is a how-to guide for anyone who has a great idea about how to give back to the community, but doesn’t know how to turn that idea into a reality. The course begins by considering a fundamental question: Is starting a nonprofit the best way to achieve your philanthropic goals? For those who answer yes, the course then discusses the key steps in getting a nonprofit off the ground, including incorporating your organization; applying for tax-exempt status; drafting a business plan; choosing a board of directors and writing bylaws for the organization; recruiting employees and managing volunteers; and addressing the crucial issue of fundraising. Rich with videos and interactive content, this course provides a detailed and highly practical introduction to the fast-growing world of nonprofits.
