“NLMI has far exceeded my expectations, and I’m proud and honored to be part of the program.”  - just one of the unsolicited comments from one of the 38 current participants in the Certificate in Nonprofit Leadership & Management program.

The Certificate in Nonprofit Leadership & Management is NOT FOR EVERY ONE, but it is for YOU if you are SERIOUS about being the VERY BEST nonprofit professional you can be, and if you are interested in being able to learn and network with others sharing your PASSION and COMMITMENT.

Many nonprofit practitioners and volunteer leaders come to their work through passion more than by way of an education that has taught them how to lead and manage effectively in order to manifest that passion. The sharing and transferring of competencies (i.e., knowledge, skills and experience) which form the backbone of "the Certificate Experience" will lead to and support changes in attitude, perception and behavior. This comprehensive professional development will build personal effectiveness and strengthen the organizations served by our graduates.
