Fundwell Academy educates successful fund development professionals to raise money effectively and creatively for philanthropic organizations. More than 800 students have enrolled in at least one of Fundwell Academy’s courses since the company's founding in 1997. Over the past decade, we have evolved our course offerings so that course content matches the needs of students and the marketplace, and refined our delivery to take advantage of technological enhancements. As the leading provider of online classes in fundraising, the academy is the only e-learning experience complemented by a hands-on mentoring project with a nonprofit, philanthropic organization. The virtual classroom, faculty interaction with students and the mentoring project make us unique among fundraising educators. We are an accomplished faculty of professionals, who have each raised millions of dollars for worthy nonprofit organizations. Fundwell Academy is also accredited by the CFRE International, the professional association granting continuing education certification for professional fund developers. Fundwell Academy has been a pioneer in online education and received a bronze metal for excellence in online training from Brandon Hall in 1999.
