The certificate program provides valuable skills and techniques that senior nonprofit executives can apply in their organization immediately. Both the participants and their organizations will benefit from this program. The modules are highly interactive and use a variety of learning methods. In addition to lectures, presentations, and demonstrations; the modules provide discussion groups, problem analyses, exercises, best practices, case studies.
