Management certificates are composed of a series of 10 required courses designed to provide a suitable combination of breadth and depth of knowledge in a specific area of study.
Certificate programs are designed to be completed on a part-time studies basis, and many of the certificate courses have prerequisite, corequisite and/or recommended background requirements that are above and beyond the 10 courses in the program. As a result, completion of this program will take more than one year of study.
