Adrian Sargeant and Stephen Pidgeon, who launched their training consultancy in 
July this year, are to start teaching their first Certificate in Fundraising course
in January 2010.

The London-based course will be run by the Institute of Fundraising and will take
place in three two-day blocks.

Paul Marvell, the Institute’s new Director of Learning, said: “Certificate training
has been running successfully for a while but this is the first time we ourselves
have set up a course, for any member to join, to teach the Certificate academically.

“There is an agreed syllabus, an assignment and an independently monitored exam 
at the end”.

The course will cost £2,000 and will be taught by Pidgeon and Sargeant with the 
support of at least five other fundraising specialists.
