Earn A Certificate In Human Service Leadership
These are challenging times in the human service field. Budget cuts. Performance-based contracting. Competitive procurement. Fee-for-service billing. Health care reform. The list goes on...
Most human service executives have long tenure with their organizations and a lasting commitment to the consumers they serve. What they need is leadership and management tools – the tools that will help them help their organization survive and thrive in challenging times.
To meet this need, the New Jersey Association of Community Providers and OPEN MINDS have created the Human Services Leadership Academy. The Academy will launch in 2011 and offer human service executives a certificate program that builds on their great experience and adds best practice models in five key areas:
- Leadership & Governance
- Financial Management
- Strategic Management
- Marketing & Innovation
- Technology & Information Management
The certificate program is built on successful completion of 60 hours of specialized management training developed by the OPEN MINDS consulting team.
