Emerging Nonprofit Leadership Accelerator

What you'll learn

This Emerging Nonprofit Leadership Accelerator (ENLA) microcredential is selective and rigorous, designed to cultivate a robust talent and leadership pipeline for the nonprofit sector in the greater Capital Region and beyond. This microcredential draws on a cohort model of leadership development and "action research" principles to support nonprofit leaders' growth in their organization and field. Action research combines cycles of action and reflection in a peer-to-peer setting - supporting each learner as they establish their leadership practice, while allowing the group to develop collective knowledge of nonprofit leadership grounded in learners' experience. Successful completion of this microcredential readies existing non-profit professionals to immediately apply for program and organizational leadership roles. Notes: A $100 scholarship is available for UAlbany alumni. Out-of-state nonprofit employee cost is $2,500. Limited partial scholarships may be available. Please indicate in your application if you would like to be considered for a partial scholarship.
