Education

NPower PA is committed to putting technology know-how in the hands of local nonprofits.  We understand that nonprofit staff need educational opportunities and resources that are tailored to their needs and use examples from their day-to-day work.

Are you itching to add graphics to your newsletter? Could mail merges turn your letter drive into a simple task? NPower offers training geared specifically to the unique needs of the non-profit community: database management, website design, expense tracking, technology planning, and more.

We also provide online resources that feature timely, relevant, and accessible information. We also offer education-based events centered around topics of interest to the Philadelphia area's nonprofit community.

    NPower's standard class withdrawal policy  applies to your registration:

    • If you withdraw from the class with at least 3 business days notice, you will not be charged.
    • If you provide advance notice of less than 3 business days, you will be still be charged for the class you miss, but can retake the class on a space available basis for only a $10 administrative fee.
