Lead Your Organization into Creating a Culture that Will Produce Results with a Certificate in Organization Development and Leadership

Creating the "right" environment or cultivating the "right" corporate culture is one of the key foundations of business success. The foundation is fundamental to employee performance, engagement, productivity, innovation and growth. One only needs to scour the internet to find hundreds to thousands of books and articles written on this subject every year but sadly the implementation of best practices in this area remains sorely neglected.

The USF Certificate in Organization Development and Leadership synthesizes the research and data on this subject into an impactful program of study in order to equip you with the tools and insight you need to positively affect your organization. Completing this program will give you the skills you need to lead and cultivate a winning culture that will positively affect your business, department, or company.

Course Structure and What You Will Learn 
Our Organization and Development Program is made up of 5 courses and a capstone course. Our program is 30 hours contact long so you can finish your certificate in under 2 months while earning CE/PDU or SHRM recertification credits. One important feature that sets our program apart from others is our program is exclusively taught by industry veterans and consultants who live what they teach and preach on a daily basis, so you are only getting proven high quality instruction and skills that work in the real world. Another feature is that our open enrollment courses are typically held two evenings a week beginning at 6pm or on Saturday, so that they are meant for working professionals or those with extremely busy or hectic lives. We also offer these courses to companies on site as well if you have a captive number of participants you would like to train.
