Foundational Leadership Certification

 

The Foundational Leadership Certification (FLC) teaches you essential leadership skills like providing feedback and working through difficult interactions. The program is self-directed so you can take it at your own pace, whether that’s over the course of one year or three.

The core modules cover basic leadership skills:

  • Leading People
  • Difficult Interactions
  • Coaching
  • Feedback Essentials
  • Performance Appraisal
  • Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging
