Fundraising Management Graduate Certificate

Overview

Many non-profit organizations today face challenging financial circumstances. Reduced government and foundation support, increased competition among non-profits and the private sector, and general economic uncertainty have all played a role in creating an environment of financial instability. As the number of non-profits grows, and the market drives organizations to be self-sustaining and accountable, fundraising has emerged as a strategic institutional need. To help address this need, Metropolitan College is pleased to offer a Graduate Certificate in Fundraising Management.

Designed and delivered by the expert faculty of the Department of Arts Administration, the Graduate Certificate in Fundraising Management provides administrative, financial, technical, and leadership skills for those seeking careers as professional fundraisers and for non-profit managers who wish to substantially enhance their skills in fundraising. The certificate is also appropriate for professionals considering a career change and professionals in the arts, healthcare, education, and human services fields.

Certificate students have access to all the resources of the Department and the University, including internship and job placement services.

The certificate is open to qualified applicants who have earned a bachelor’s degree from a fully accredited college or university in the United States or abroad. All candidates for admission are selected on the basis of undergraduate transcripts, academic and personal references, and related work experience.
