Management and Leadership

Develop your management and leadership skills to be an effective leader and advance your career.

Taught by industry-experienced instructors, you'll gain a foundation for success as a manager, team lead or supervisor by working
independently and in teams to better understand how to manage projects and lead people in today's rapidly changing business world.

Prepare yourself to lead a team through disruptive change while maintaining momentum through continuous improvements by
evolving your leadership, interpersonal, accounting and project management skills and applying that knowledge to various situations.

You can choose two electives to tailor the program to your specific needs and interests. You will finish the program with a capstone
course that gives you the opportunity to apply your abilities in a work-integrated learning project, further developing critical thinking,
communication, collaboration and organizational capabilities. You'll have up to five years to complete this certificate.

When you complete the program, you have the opportunity to ladder into higher credentials at SAIT. Up to 24 credits from this
certificate can be applied to our Business Administration diploma or Bachelor of Business Administration programs (varies by major).
Both programs have additional admission requirements and your timeline to complete a diploma or degree begins when you start the
first certificate course.
