Nonprofit Certificate Program

“I found my calling at Habitat for Humanity, but my first degree didn’t really connect with my position. I’m currently taking the certificate in nonprofit leadership. The program has really set me up for success, plus provided a lot of resources I can use going forward, especially networking with other people.”
