| The
international professional credential for fundraising
executives.
The Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) designation is a personal and professional achievement that sets standards in philanthropy.
Show your colleagues, your employer, and your donors your commitment to the profession by becoming a CFRE.
"The best thing to happen to me because I have my CFRE was actually gaining my CFRE in the first place. It defined me as a professional in the vocation I had taken on 9 years before.Up until the time I achieved my CFRE I had felt a sense of something missing in the way the profession of fundraising was articulated and how I viewed myself within it. Gaining my CFRE gave me a place – and the confidence to know I belonged in that place."Nigel Harris, CFRE Maters' Hospital Trust, Brisbane, QLD Australia |
