About the Program

The Executive Certificate in Philanthropic Leadership Program is designed to strengthen the leadership capacity of philanthropic practitioners working in private foundations, community foundations, corporate foundations, donor advised funds, and other philanthropic organizations. The Certificate gives philanthropic leaders the opportunity to learn about groundbreaking strategies being used by funders large and small, local and global, and to think more broadly about the unique role philanthropy is called to play in our societies.

Designed as an experiential leadership lab, this program provides a stimulating and supportive climate for reimagining philanthropy today. Leaders will develop strategies for long-term change, approaches for engaging community, processes for measuring impact, and explore the possibilities of collaboration across the philanthropic ecosystem.

The program also gives participants the opportunity to become part of a network of philanthropic leaders committed to working to support each other’s goals, address challenges, and create new strategies for change.
