Quality Performance Excellence The certificate programs at Benedictine University are an excellent way to gain a competitive edge in your profession. Designed to meet the growing need for effective, cutting-edge management skills, our programs are always being updated to reflect current job market needs. Students learn the disciplines by attaining the knowledge and skills to perform professional functions. Some students choose the certificate programs as a shorter, more focused alternative to a graduate degree program. Some students plan to apply the certificate credits to a degree program at a later date. Others, who may already have an advanced degree, enter the program to update their skills or embark on a new area of specialization. Students seeking a certificate are provided an expedited admissions process. Students are required to submit a certificate program application as well as proof of baccalaureate degree conferral. Degree-seeking students are required to submit additional documents including but not limited to official transcripts from all colleges/universities previously attended.
Program Overview Competence in the “human side of enterprise” – including global interdependence, workforce diversity and the management of change – has become the hallmark of excellent managers and leading-edge companies. The Master of Science in Management and Organizational Behavior (M.S.M.O.B.) program offers several certificate programs that address the education and skill development needs of people who have completed undergraduate degrees. Furthermore, many people who have graduate degrees find a certificate program to be the educational solution for career development without having to complete an additional master’s or doctoral degree. All students entering into a certificate program must schedule an advising appointment with the M.S.M.O.B. program director. Please call (630) 829-6223 to do so.
