Free Internet Tools
“Free Internet tools are proliferating rapidly, but keeping abreast of what is new – and improved – can be challenging.
Without time to routinely evaluate new sites -- or the expanding functionality of more established ones -- we risk underutilizing a stable of research-ready professional tools that could make us more productive and effective and add additional value in the development office. In this lively training-oriented session, industry veterans Bruce Berg and Joey Sample jointly lead a real-time demonstration of ways we can use key sites and functionality on the Internet to become more efficient, keep us more informed, and share and work with our colleagues.”

Bruce Berg Bruce Berg has served as Director of Research and Prospect Management at Northeastern University since 2007. Previously, he served as Deputy Director of Research at Harvard University. A frequent industry speaker on technology issues in the development office, Bruce is also a board member of the New England Development Research Association (NEDRA) and has served on the awards committee of the Association for Prospect Researchers for Advancement (APRA).

Joey Sample Prior to joining Northeastern University, Joey Sample worked for Simmons College as the Corporate and Foundation Relations Officer, where he was responsible for creating and implementing a comprehensive research program for corporate and foundation prospects. Before he was a researcher, Joey spent several years in the non-profit sector, serving in both stewardship and proposal writing roles for Gay Men's Health Crisis, The Damien Center, Indiana University School of Medicine and Planned Parenthood. A member of the Client Advisory Board for Metasoft Systems, Inc. (producers of FoundationSearch), Joey is also active in the prospect research community through his affiliations with the New England Development Research Association (NEDRA) and the Association of Professional Researchers for Advancement (APRA).
