View courses| View Courses Offered This Semester | View courses

The University of Nevada Las Vegas, Division of Educational Outreach, in collaboration with United Way of Southern Nevada, announces the creation and implementation of a New and Enhanced Certificate in Non-Profit Management.

The new program, modeled on the Principles for Good Governance and Ethical Practice, developed and published by the Panel on the Nonprofit Sector in October 2007, focuses on developing and improving competency in non-profit management.

The new curriculum will include the following four (4) required Core Courses:

  • Ethics in Non-Profit Governance
  • Responsible Fundraising
  • Strong Financial Oversight
  • Legal Compliance & Public Disclosure
Topics covered include ethics and values, non-profit governance and leadership, organization and management, non-profit law, non-profit human resources, non-profit economics and finance, financial management and accountability, information technology and management, fundraising and development, non-profit marketing, voluntary action and philanthropy, and assessment, evaluation, and decision-making.

The Core Courses will be delivered in a blended learning experience with traditional face-to-face classroom instruction, field experience, guest speakers, and individual assignments including reading, research, and online work. Optional Advanced Courses may from time to time be offered to supplement the Core Courses.

The Non-Profit Brown Bag Mini Seminar series are stand-alone courses that are not part of the new Non-Profit Certificate Program.
