Certificate News July 2023
July is a great time to remind our managers about the Graduate Certificate in Local Government Management at Virginia Tech.
The Graduate Certificate in Local Government Management prepares the next generation of local government leaders and managers for leadership positions in local government. We offer five courses throughout a calendar year so that students can complete the program in one year. Course are offered once a week, via zoom. Courses include economic development, human resource management, finance, planning and governance topics. What your employees learn in class one day can be applied in the workplace the next day! Our courses are taught by current or former local government managers and deputies so students learn from those in the profession.
Have you considered the Certificate as a succession planning tool or professional development tool? Contact Stephanie Davis at sddavis@vt.edu for more information.
The Certificate will hold virtual information sessions on July 5, 12, and 19th at noon via zoom for interested students. Please use this link to register for the information sessions. https://virginiatech.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEkdO2hrz4vHtYgJgJnodwQrcNaj6BUuBxo
