FIA’s MDU program is an intensive five day residential education program in a supportive environment, designed to meet the needs of fundraising professionals in all nonprofit sectors in the Asia Pacific region. It is not a conference but rather an exciting professional development program with significant opportunities to learn from international experts and to build lasting relationships with fundraisers from across Australia.
 
How does MDU work?
Each delegate attending MDU selects a single track for the duration of the program. Numbers are restricted in each track to ensure an optimal, supportive learning environment and maximum participation. Each track is conducted in an intensive and rigorous program of workshop sessions, case studies and lectures. On the registration form please nominate your choice of track.
 
Track places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis and may book out!
 
Who should attend MDU?
FIA encourages fundraising professional and management personnel with an interest or involvement in resource development to attend, including:
  • Fundraising/Resource Development Professionals
  • CEOs and other nonprofit staff
  • Fundraising Consultants
  • Other professionals with input into the establishment or management of development programs
Prerequisites
A number of MDU tracks have prerequisites for approval to participate in the track. These prerequisites are intended to ensure all attendees in the track start on an even grounding without faculty needing to dedicate time to the fundamentals of fundraising. Track prerequisites include participation in FIA's Skills 1 or Skills 2 or Certificate in Fundraising programs or a certain number of years' experience in fundraising. Please refer to each track's outline for specific information on their requirements.

What if I don't meet them?
We request that when you apply for a track with prerequisites you attach your CV in an email to training@fia.org.au. Your CV may then be sent through to the faculty for their advice.
