TESTIMONIALS
“The NFP Boot Camp exceeded my expectations. The intimate size of the seminar allowed for invaluable networking opportunities across a broad spectrum of sectors from NGO, business and social enterprise. The focus on quality, longer presentations over quantity meant that the strategies and concepts being presented could be explored and demonstrated in depth. This has allowed our organisation to implement many of the outcomes immediately and meant they were particularly timely moving into the new year. Scott also ensured there was no shortage of laughter!” Anna Jane Linke, CEO & Founder Seaside Scavenge
