Part-time Study
Management Process
Program Overview
If you have a leadership or supervisory focus, you will be most interested in our management development program. This offering is specifically designed for new supervisors, emerging managers, and those seeking supervisory and management positions.
The program has two components—the management certificate and the management diploma. By successfully completing the management process sequence (0681-200, 201, 202), a 12-credit course in practical supervision, management, and communication skills, students may earn the management certificate. To receive a management diploma, students must complete 16 additional credits in one of three business/management concentrations.
This program delivers a broad foundation in applied general management with focused study in a specialized field. Both parts are also appropriate for individuals with degrees in the liberal arts, sciences or technologies that wish to acquire new professional skills and expand their career opportunities.
Anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the management process will be interested in this unique three-quarter, 12-credit course, management process.
The program focuses on practical applications of management theory, management problems, solutions and ideas, and personal development as an effective manager. In addition, it offers a comprehensive, integrated study of supervisory management. Management process is enriched with topics like effective motivation, decision-making, team building, conflict resolution, problem solving, time and stress management, communication techniques and strategies, planning, organizing, staffing, performance appraisal, and leadership.
Students work with others who have similar outlooks, aspirations, job responsibilities, and challenging problems on the job. And they learn effective supervisory and management practices through case studies, role-plays, simulations, and other methods. Instruction is guided by a team of management specialists, rather than by a single instructor. A program GPA of at least 2.0 is required for certification. For further information, call 585-475-2234.
