The demand for qualified leaders in the federal government is greater than ever. Our carefully curated Leadership Certificate Series encourages accelerated learning with immediate opportunities to apply enhanced skills in change management, decision-making, leveraging technology, building effective teams, and more. Each program includes five courses focused on topics tailored to specific leadership levels, and all align with OPM’s Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs). Three distinct levels ensure your agency has a program designed for every stage of career development.

I never realized how much it (NLP) taught me and helped me grow professionally. It (NLP) taught me so much about working with employees and how to handle, let’s say “problem ones.” The contacts from the program have also benefited me in many ways.
