The professional world has changed radically in our lifetime. Today, you can expect to work for four or more employers in your work life, often in positions that require skills that you have no formal training in. Being a leader, manager, or supervisor in this new environment is challenging. To be successful, you must be equipped with practical tools to effectively interact with those you supervise, as well as those who supervise you. This is true regardless of your work setting, whether it is service or manufacturing, education or health care, business or nonprofit.

All classes take place at the UD Downtown Center for Performance Excellence, 8th and King Streets, Wilmington.

This certificate was previously called the Supervision and Leadership Certificate. If you have previously completed coursework in this program, please contact Mica Corradin at 302/571-5239 or corradin@udel.edu to determine completion requirements.
