NCNE's Networks

NCNE depends for its success on a wide range of key partners and members. NCNE has:

• an Institutional Consortium,  
• a Research Advisory Council,
• a Research Advisory Network, and
• a Practice Advisory Council.

Institutional Consortium

Members of this consortium are academic centers or departments in universities or business schools. They all have a particular interest in nonprofit management, both in terms of generating new thinking and of helping nonprofits in their communities have a greater impact and increase their sustainability. Consortium members pay dues. NCNE aims to add value to their work by engaging its network of researchers, teachers and writers to provide the best possible content to the centers' presentations, seminars, conferences and curricula.
