Graduate Certificate Program—Communication for Center Directors of Institutions of Higher Education Centers are a permanent fixture across landscapes of colleges and universities that provide important services for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as faculty, and communication is crucial to the success of these centers. Directors must have the necessary communication skills to articulate their missions to stakeholders and work with diverse populations, both across and beyond the university. Moreover, the proposed program will serve a wide variety of graduate students from diverse disciplinary backgrounds, which will provide a fertile ground for transdisciplinary research and collaboration. The Certificate is designed to be flexible and provides graduate students with an opportunity to improve communicative behaviors, study the historical roots and purposes of center missions, explore the richness and complexity of center functions, and partake in the impact of the services provided at centers for learners. The Communication for Center Directors at Institutions of Higher Education (CCD) Graduate Certificate is intended to meet the needs of a currently growing, yet uncertified, population that oversee and manage centers at institutions of higher education with a highly flexible 12-credit hour graduate certification.
