The USFSM/Nonprofit Resource Center: Continuing Education Certificate in Leadership & Nonprofit Management
The University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee and the Nonprofit Resource Center of the Community Foundation of Sarasota County have jointly designed a comprehensive training for nonprofit leaders. By combining fundamental leadership and management principles with practical nonprofit expertise, these continuing education non-credit courses will address the real life challenges and emerging issues facing today's nonprofit leaders. The experiential, ten week Continuing Education certificate is open to potential and current nonprofit managers and leaders. The certificate courses are open to anyone wishing to enroll. No previous experience or educational course is required to register.
Participants in the non-credit courses will have the opportunity to transfer what they have learned in the classroom to their respective agencies through the completion of an individual class project. Further engagement will take place through example case studies, small group activities, speakers and optimum networking opportunities. The faculty will consist of seasoned professionals from USFSM and the community that are subject matter experts and knowledgeable about the structure and practices of nonprofit management and leadership.
Upon completion of the courses participants will be recognized by the Nonprofit Resource Center and will receive a Continuing Education certificate in Leadership & Nonprofit Management endorsed by University of South Florida, Sarasota-Manatee.
