Asset Giving Fundamentals

AGU Icon

Learn a practical, relationship-centered path you can carry into your next giver meeting.

Asset Giving Fundamentals is an immersive course that combines relationship frameworks, technical knowledge, peer learning, and realistic application.

Confidence with complexity.

Become conversant in asset gifts without trying to become the giver’s attorney, accountant, or financial advisor.

Relationships built on trust.

Ask thoughtful questions about business, family, stewardship, and legacy while keeping the giver’s values at the center.

Practical tools you can use immediately.

Bring home questions, frameworks, gift illustrations, and conversation strategies you can adapt to your role.

Learn alongside your peers

Learn it. Practice it. Put it to work.

Learn how to begin with curiosity, build a shared understanding, and help the giver discern a meaningful next step.

Bring your experience into the conversation. Explore new approaches together, practice what you’re learning, and take practical ideas back to your giver relationships.

The AGU program created a framework before getting into the more technical details of asset giving, which was smart.
