NAES College. Community Board Training Project

The Native American Educational Services (NAES) College began the Community Board Training Project (CBTP) as a 2 1/2 year program in 1979. The CBTP continued through 1983. During that time, the CBTP was structured to help organizations serving the Native American community to function more efficiently. With Louis Delgado as its director, CBTP sponsored workshops which focused on training in the concepts behind community service agencies, including effective management and technical skills such as planning fiscal management, improving public relations, filing, hiring and using computer technology. During the course of its existence, the program expanded and sought to provide resource materials to community organizations and to offer them technical assistance.
