Training
Progressive organizations view training and development as an investment rather than an expense to create a work environment that values learning and continuous improvement.
Well planned and focused training can:
-
improve productivity, efficiency and profitability
-
increase employee motivation and lower turnover
-
develop employee skills to meet future organizational needs

Building Capacity to Manage a Vibrant Volunteer Workforce
Just how significant are Volunteers in arts and culture organizations? In many cases, we could not imagine functioning without our volunteers!
Hill Strategies research indicates that "Manitoba’s 29,000 arts and culture volunteers, 3.1% of the provincial population (15 or older), contributed about 4 million hours to arts and culture organizations in 2004. This contribution is roughly equivalent to about 2,200 full-year jobs. This volunteer contribution is worth approximately $56 million." View full article
