In numerous surveys focused on the skills that are most desired by employers, leadership is routinely listed as one of the top needs. While the MS in Organizational Leadership provides robust leadership development, it is not always feasible to undertake a full graduate degree. As a result, this graduate certificate seeks to provide leadership development while also not requiring a full master's program. Additionally, this certificate can be taken by students in other online accelerated graduate programs so that they can develop their leadership skills and knowledge while earning a degree in another discipline.
