The Online Certificate in Management Essentials (CME) provides you with the skills you need to be the best supervisor or manager you can be. This program is completely online and self-paced so you can stay competitive regardless of your location and schedule. Designed by subject matter experts, the curriculum has been reviewed and approved by the University Senate.
If you already have some management skills, you can customize this program to focus on your skills and knowledge gaps by taking individual courses instead of the entire certificate.
Today's employers want team members who are good at their jobs, and that means you. But a lack of necessary skills or experience may cause them to look elsewhere. UNB's CME program can help give you the skills you need to manage effectively and provide you with a competitive edge.
Want to know where your current management and leadership abilities stand? Take this Management Essentials Competency Assessment (MECA). As you work through CME courses, you can re-visit the assessment to track your progress.
You can register at any time but each course must be completed within 6 weeks from confirmation of registration. You should plan to spend an estimated 15-18 hours per course on content, readings, tests, and assignments. To receive the certificate, you must successfully complete the 6 required courses, starting with Leading from Within (CCME 1000), plus 4 out of 12 electives. Courses also provide a final evaluation that allows employees to demonstrate their learning and progress.
