Management Certificate

The Management Certificate is designed for students who want to broaden their current careers, or to establish a framework for further business studies, or to provide the foundation for transferring into a business-oriented associate degree program. The certificate is also an ideal introduction to various areas of management studies for students who have a technical or liberal arts education/vocation and are considering adding a business education component to their training. The certificate offers a concentrated curriculum in management, a sound foundation in accounting and business law, and course work in fundamentals of management, human resources, computer applications, marketing, and microeconomics. 

Program Learning Outcomes

Successful graduates of the program will be able to:

1. Apply the basic skills of accounting, business law, management, marketing, and computer technology within the business environment; 
2. Apply principles of ethics to solve problems in the business management environment;
3. Evaluate ways in which business professionals adapt to diverse client needs in a management environment; 
4. Identify managerial needs through critical analysis, decision-making, team-building and problem-solving skills.

Career and Transfer Outlook

Former MassBay business students currently work in sales, marketing, finance, human resources, and management, and some operate their own business.

If you are interested in continuing your education beyond the Management Certificate, you can meet with an advisor to discuss opportunities for MassTransfer with select public institutions in Massachusetts in addition to transferring to private colleges and universities.
