This webinar will provide an introduction to Social Current and COA Accreditation. Participants will gain an understanding of the key concepts that define COA Accreditation, the steps toward becoming accredited, and the benefits of accreditation.
These trainings are pre-conference sessions of the SPARK 2025 conference. The Intensive Accreditation Training (IAT) session is designed to prepare organizations to get the most out of their COA Accreditation experience. The performance and quality improvement (PQI) training will help organization develop a comprehensive approach to a quality improvement process that will advance effective service delivery and organizational capacity.
During this pre-conference session, participants will gain practical skills in policy analysis, narrative framing, and grassroots mobilization. With a focus on low-cost, high-impact strategies, this session is designed for organizations operating with limited capacity but high stakes.
For over 20 years, the Executive Leadership Institute (ELI) has established an incredible reputation for providing a quality peer learning experience that positively impacts the development of social sector leaders. This pre-conference convening is the first of its kind! We invite past, present, and future ELI participants to join us to catch up with fellow alumni, network with those who are interested in learning more about ELI, and discuss its transformative impact on both the individual and the organization.
SPARK 2025 will showcase sector insight and expertise to drive toward greater impact so all people can thrive. This in-person event will convene leaders from across human services.
We know that data-informed decision making and continuous quality improvement (CQI) are critical to the success of any change initiative—including our trauma-informed efforts. However, two key barriers often hinder our ability to integrate a trauma-informed lens into data collection. Join us for this workshop, where we will explore strategies to overcome both barriers.
This two-day workshop will equip leaders and supervisors with foundational knowledge and skills to help their teams manage uncertainty and interpersonal conflict so they can create a healthy and resilient organizational culture.
