This course will equip you with frameworks to help you progress from idea to delivery of a
performing digital campaign. Whether you are looking to develop a digital fundraising program
or if you have already started but are seeing lacklustre results, then this course, presented

shows you how to start scaling the results, measure and report campaign performance.
