Certificate in Nonprofit Management

While traditional business courses will help prepare students for the for-profit sector, the courses are not always appropriate for the nonprofit arena. Nonprofit organizations have specific needs when it comes to understanding board governance, fundraising and grant writing, and HR concerns when the ‘workforce’ is made up of a large number of volunteers. Traditional business knowledge and approaches do apply but less traditional skills are highly desired by this sector. Ideally, new hires will have not only a foundation in public policy, media and public relations and fiscal management, but they will also have the skills to aid in program building and evaluation, and strategic planning. These business skills are needed to manage the various facets of nonprofit organizations.

Note: Students are held to all prerequisite requirements; some students may require more than 5 courses to complete this certificate.
