This popular & affordable Certificate Program in Nonprofit Management is a joint venture between Nonprofit Solutions and University of Massachusetts Global (UMass Global), designed specifically to prepare nonprofit professionals for leadership positions.

This 12-session survey curriculum examines the fundamental governance and management skills required to lead mission-driven organizations. The small cohort group will learn from industry experts and share with each other the opportunities & challenges of operating a nonprofit organization. The curriculum is highly interactive and practical, imbedding academic theory into real-life situations. Being led by a nonprofit veteran and working with a small group of your peers makes the theoretical learning very practical so you can implement your learning right away. 

Optional: Graduates will also be eligible to sit for the Certified Nonprofit Professional (CNP) exam through the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance via their Accelerated track and at a $200 discount. NOTE: This is an extra fee paid directly to NLA and is not required upon graduation. The offer never expires and can be completed at any time after graduation. More details are shared during class.

  • History of the Nonprofit Sector
