I found the Philanthropy and Social Impact course led by knowledgeable trainers incredibly valuable for my career development. The course's focus on practical, real-world applications enabled me to incorporate new strategies and insights into my work. The trainers, with their expertise, provided exceptional support and ensured we could translate theoretical concepts into actionable plans. What stood out most for me was the course's broad global perspective with a Singapore focus, which encouraged me to think outside the box and improve my work from different viewpoints.

The Philanthropy and Social Impact course was illuminating, thanks to the trainers' extensive experience and insights. They facilitated rich and insightful discussions, and addressed questions from various stakeholders across the philanthropy space. The course also helped me to realise how crucial it is, as a charity leader, to effectively communicate our work and impact to philanthropy advisors who, in turn, guide their clients in making informed grant-making decisions.

The Philanthropy & Impact Course gives me a good foundation to understanding the roles of philanthropy advisors as well for those who are already doing various forms of social good and would wish to augment their participation in the impact philanthropy. The journey has been fulfilling to learn of philanthropy that has evolved from merely writing the cheque and into more collaborative philanthropy where energies, ideas and time are channeled to a greater mission that is larger than oneself to make that difference.
