2Nonprofits | Bringing effective change agents to the social sector

2Nonprofits | Bringing effective change agents to the social sector: "2Nonprofits.org is a blog project of the Wilson Center for Social Entrepreneurship at Pace University. It aims to help experienced business people make the transition to work in the nonprofit social sector.

At this time, this site serves two primary roles:

1. To provide a community for individuals interested in making a move to employment in the nonprofit sector.
2. To learn from individuals in order to best develop an executive education program that will provide both education and experience, helping individual participants to learn and live the history, culture, and practices of nonprofit organizations.

Business2Nonprofits Transition Program

Combining executive education with practical experience the Business2Nonprofits program will give participants knowledge of the field and hands-on exposure to the mission and practices of nonprofits. Participants attend monthly classes. At the same time they perform a staff fellowship for a nonprofit undertaking a professional project of use to the organization, and they serve as a board fellow for another organization, attending (as a nonvoting member) its board meetings."
