Re: Financial Need vs. Ability to Use a scholarship
I did add that question, but I might need to reword it because I got very general answers. We already ask about jobs in the application.
When is your due date? The reason we might be getting too general of an answer from students is that our due date is well before any decision and/or financial aid package is received.
Thank you!
Re: How has your foundation managed database functions / jobs internally?
@KaraGeiger This is what I proposed last year when I was moving to a full-time database wrangling position (I'd been part-time for some years). The title didn't happen (we stuck with Database Manager), but my job is exactly these things. I believe everyone needs a single, dedicated CSuite guru on staff!
@JaneLitz you may also find this informative as you consider whether to develop a full time role.
Re: How has your foundation managed database functions / jobs internally?
I appreciate this thread; Coastal Community Foundation of SC is looking to implement a Database Manager for C-Suite/GLM/SLM but not sure where to find someone with understanding of all modules, and if such a position requires a full-time staff add. Each department (Grants, Development, Finance) has been managing their own portion of the software but we need to implement more oversight and help with training, developing greater utilization, and building out the donor portal with more functionality. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
