What will I learn?

Learn to effectively manage a nonprofit entity with the financial and management courses in this certificate program. The Suffolk Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management (GCNM) will enhance your understanding of public sector finance. This nine-credit program covers administration in a public sector context as well as finance, human resources, and other topics specific to nonprofits and nonprofit business environments.
This hybrid on campus/online program can be completed in as little as one semester. You can continue to build on your management knowledge by stacking the GCNM with our Graduate Certificate in Public & Nonprofit Management & Leadership. If you apply to the Master of Public Administration program within a year of completing this certificate, and had a 3.0 or higher cumulative GPA, you won’t need to take the GRE or GMAT to enroll in the master's program.
