Nonprofit Development and Management Certificate
The Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Development and Management is a blended online and classroom experience. A unique program, it is one of a few graduate certificate programs offered at a Christian College to focus on the nonprofit sector. According to the Georgia Center for Nonprofits, nonprofit organizations are the fasting growing corporations in Georgia. As this sector continues to grow, it will require increased training, skills, and management tools to maximize performance, as well as, to compete in the field and in the philanthropic world.
Beulah Heights University has designed its Nonprofit Development and Management Certificate to meet the needs faced by both faith-based and secular nonprofit sectors. The program’s focus is to integrate development and management in the nonprofit sector to increase awareness and knowledge, enabling individuals to analyze and problem solve issues related to nonprofit organizations, both in the ministry and the marketplace. This program will give current practitioners, and those who want to impact community transformation, an edge in performance. Our faculty is composed of accomplished field practitioners and academicians.
BHU’s nonprofit management certificate combines both online and classroom formats in a blended learning experience. Students meet in class on the BHU campus twice a month for two months and the remainder of the course work will be completed online. Each class will be 8 weeks long. The program will be 18 credit hours, emphasizing courses in nonprofit management to include nonprofit financial management, poverty and development, legal issues affecting nonprofit organizations and fundraising, etc. The certificate program is designed for you to complete in just 12 months.
The cost of the entire certificate program is only $5,000. We want to give individuals that are interested in the nonprofit sector the opportunity to enhance their knowledge at an affordable rate so they can impact the lives of others through their education and service to the community. The graduate certificate program is eligible for federal financial aid.
