MCS works with funders to create collaborative learning opportunities for the sector. These efforts center on a deep belief that interaction with others is a highly effective approach to learning key leadership and management skills.
Recently, MCS in conjunction with The Barr Foundation and Associated Grants Management provided the following collaborative learning groups:
Next Generation Board Training
An initiative which trained 26 members of the National Black College Alliance over a six month period, with board placement
Next Generation Leadership Group
An intense year long group of six emerging leaders in founder led organizations
Five Star Leadership
Two year long groups of ten Executive Directors
In 2007, MCS will continue these groups and begin:
Three Board Training sessions for Constituent Board Members
Technology and Evaluation Systems for small organizations
