"The Certificate in Nonprofit Management provided me with a level of confidence as I transitioned from a senior management role in the private sector into a development role at a university. It has also been very helpful in my two board roles - one an advisory board and one a governing board with fiduciary responsibility."

-- Nancy McKinney San Francisco, CA
