Certificate Benefits
Beyond the valuable leading-edge training offered by individual courses, a 10-course certificate in Supervisory, Human Resources or Public Management provides evidence to employers of successful completion of a top-quality educational program, and indicates a level of professional achievement in one’s field. Certificates are earned only by those who demonstrate commitment to a long-term program of study and mastery of the most up-to-date information available to professionals working in supervisory management, human resources, public management or related fields.
Certificates are awarded after successful completion of five core courses in Supervisory, Human Resources or Public Management, along with five elective courses. Core courses are offered twice each year. To earn two Management Certificates, complete the five core courses for two Management Certificate programs in addition to five elective courses.
More Elective Choices
In addition to the five required core courses for each program, participants may choose from dozens of electives offered by Extended Studies each year, or may apply core courses from another Extended Studies custom certificate program as electives to their chosen 10-course custom program. Core courses applied as electives toward a management certificate may be used only once. Individuals wishing to complete two certificate programs must complete 10 core courses and an additional five elective courses.
