Certificate in Nonprofit Management

The Certificate in Nonprofit Management is a 15-credit-hour program of study. The certificate is designed to serve the needs of individuals who would like exposure to the nonprofit sector and nonprofit management issues but who do not wish or need to pursue a degree in nonprofit management. The certificate complements other courses of study or career experience in such areas as social work, library science, and philanthropic studies. Students pursuing a nonprofit management certificate gain an understanding of the managerial skills required to work in and with nonprofit organizations.

• SPEA-V 522 Human Resource Management in Nonprofit Organizations (3 cr.)
• SPEA-V 525 Management in the Nonprofit Sector  (3 cr.)

• Two additional SPEA graduate courses are selected with the approval of the student's advisor.

Students interested in continuing for the Master of Public Affairs should consider selecting the nonprofit management concentration, particularly V 521 Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector.
