What you will learn

Join our Project Leadership and Management Certificate program to learn valuable leadership skills that will boost your knowledge and get you ready for your chosen career. 

Project Leadership and Management are two skills that are critical for success in almost any industry, but often can only be learned on the job. This certificate gives students entering the workforce a leg up by providing the foundation for building this skill set. Students who enter the workforce with extracurricular leadership positions may have an edge in experience, but this spring, any student can take advantage of the opportunity to practice managing individuals and projects. 

Whether your major is in the humanities or STEM, this certificate program will prepare you to enter a company ready to implement best practices for managing teams and steering projects with confidence.
