If you are anywhere in southern AZ (I know OSEF is, but this goes for anyone 
on this list who's interrested) then you may want to consider taking some 
courses from ASU's Non-Profit Management Institute:
http://www.asu.edu/xed/npmi/

They have a very knowledgable and experienced staff there, and some excellent 
courses. It's thru ASU's extended campus in Phoenix.

If you are thinking of starting one up, I'd /highly/ recommend seeing if you 
can find a non-profit start-up class in your area rather than trying to learn 
how to do it on your own. I'd also recommend a mentorship program (people in 
southern AZ can ask me OFF-LIST for some good contacts in this area ;-)
