Program Description

University College at the University of West Georgia offers a course of study leading to a Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management and Community Development.  For those already employed in the non-profit sector, our certificate offers an opportunity for additional training through courses on grant-writing, program evaluation, and data analysis techniques (quantitative and qualitative). 

The Nonprofit and Community Development certificate is designed for students who want to learn how to establish, administer, or work for non-governmental and non-profit organizations.  While conventional certificate programs have an exclusively managerial focus, our program supplements managerial training by also equipping students with the theoretical and practical skills to engage in grassroots advocacy.
