About Get On Board

Launched in 2016, Get On Board provides individuals and organizations with essential skills and knowledge to enable them to be effective and impactful community change agents.  The Get On Board curriculum is based on a set of core competencies and skills and structured within various tracts of focus to help individuals determine the areas they most wish to develop. Created and pioneered by the State Council of the Junior Leagues of New Jersey, the curriculum was developed to create a pipeline of well-trained current and prospective board members, both inside and outside of the Junior League community. The program is designed to provide both introductory information for new or potential board members, as well as include more advanced electives, workshops and trainings for more seasoned members so they may hone in on relevant trends and changes in the ever-changing nonprofit world.

Our aim is that  Get On Board attendees are trained and well positioned  to provide the broadest and best impact across a spectrum of nonprofit organizations throughout the state of New Jersey. 

While originally launched as a one-day immersive bootcamp, Get On Board shifted in 2020 to offer trainings online, both on-demand and live virtual events. ​
