Introduction
In today’s business-oriented society, project-based organizations and project management have become much more than just a way of conducting business. New growth within these organizations has changed the shape of project management to reveal what is becoming an exciting new career path for many individuals. The advanced certificate in project management will prepare you to effectively manage projects by successfully planning, organizing, and executing specific projects or one-time efforts.
Why Study Project Management?
Project managers have quickly become a necessary asset for many businesses. Encountering the challenges of cultural and social differences, along with an assortment of industrial focuses, a project manager must be aware of a project’s goals on a daily and, sometimes, hourly basis. The advanced certificate in project management will prepare you to plan, develop, and execute successful business projects from initiation to completion.
What is a Graduate Certificate?
A graduate certificate also called an advanced certificate, is a selection of up to five graduate-level courses in a particular area of study. It can serve as a stand-alone credential that provides expertise in a specific topic that enhances your professional knowledge base, or it can serve as the entry point to a master's degree. Some students complete an advanced certificate and apply for those credits hours later toward a master's degree.
