OUR TEAM HAS years OF EXPERIENCE

Development Action thinks that good professional development is:

• interactive, with a mixture of learning and "doing"

• not limited to training or presentations

• appropriate for your needs, either as an individual, team or organization

• challenging; it should push your boundaries and make you think

• tuned to your working realities and immediately applicable

GREAT QUALITY, GREAT FLEXIBILITY

The Development Action team does its very best to create learning events that are both accessible and good value.

• Group learning events: structured, led by knowledgeable facilitators and focused on the needs of not-for-profits operating in Canada and overseas as well as public sector actors who work closely with community initiatives.  

• In-house and targeted learning: perfect for addressing the specific learning needs of a staff member, team or board. We can work with you to design a session that suits your needs perfectly.

• Partner capacity building: our collective experience spans the globe, from Canada to South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. We can work with your partner organizations in Canada or overseas to help plug skills gaps, negotiate agreements like MOUs, and lay the foundations for a sustainable and fruitful relationship.
