Certified Public Managers Now Have Online Certification Program

MU is offering a new online certification program this fall for Certified Public Managers.

Millersville University will offer a new online certification program this fall. The new PA Certified Public Manager ® (CPM) program will help continuing education participants at Millersville University earn a nationally recognized certification in public sector leadership/management. The program is designed to help develop and refine leadership skills so participants can better impact the roles and responsibilities they hold in local and state government organizations. The PA CPM program is a nationally recognized professional development program governed by the National CPM Consortium.

“The agency or department the students represent will benefit from the Capstone Project, where the participant applies their learning to a project,” said Paul Young, director of Corporate University for Millersville. “The projects will target revenue generation, expense reduction and customer satisfaction within each participant’s organization.”

The PA CPM program is geared toward those who have a master’s degree in public administration (MPA) or may be contemplating an MPA. This will also be Millersville’s first distance education offering from a non-credit perspective.

 

One reply on “Certified Public Managers Now Have Online Certification Program”

I am a graduate of the 2009 United Way of Chester County’s Leadership Connection (UW CCLC) program (a program jointly sponsored by the UW, Chester County Chamber of Commerce and West Chester University) and am interested in learning how I could use these credits and Millersville’s program to obtain my PA CPM. I am also contemplating a Masters Degree in Public Administration and have a B.S. in Business (Accounting) from the Smeal School at Penn State University and some graduate business school credits from Villanova University.

If you could let me know the details of your program and its alignment with the CCLC program noted above, I would truly appreciate it.

Thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Laura M. Erickson
