Classes Begin!

Classes began the week of January 18, 2022 and our certificate students are excited! Thank you to our adjunct instructors for their service to the next generation this semester: Anthony Romanello, John Budesky, Kathleen Guzzi, Sara Carter, and Peter Huber. 

Spring Information Sessions

The Certificate program will hold information sessions this semester. Please share the dates and the links with your staff.  During these info sessions, we will review the benefits and opportunities available through the local government program; course requirements, and the connection to our MPA program (electives and course substitutions).
