DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATE
- vs -
DIVERSITY CERTIFICATION(S)
What's The Difference? WE NOW OFFER BOTH! The basic difference is this...the certificate program does not involve a test. It is a 'Certificate of Completion' issued as a results of attendance, not proficiency.
CERTIFICATION does involve taking a proficiency test upon completion of the course requirements. There are also certain criteria (requirements) that you must meet in order to be accepted to the program. You are also required to write a research/white paper in the Certification program. There are also different types of "Certifications" available.

Has your boss advised you that they are willing to help you get the professional development necessary to success at your job? Have you been attending diversity conferences hoping the break out sessions would give you the information you need to better manage your organizations diversity department? NOW you have another solution.
