Business Analytics Certificate Program

This Autumn, the University of Chicago Graham School of Continuing Liberal and Professional Studies will launch its first fully online Certificate in Business Analytics. This program has been built to serve professionals in non-technical roles who need to examine their organization’s data and make strategic recommendations grounded in rigorous data analysis. This certificate has been developed independently from the Graham School’s Master of Science in Analytics which delves into the technical aspects of data analysis. The two programs share instructors and an outlook on the value that analytics can provide an organization but are designed for separate audiences. While the certificate serves professionals who need a practical study of data analysis as they are pursuing careers as decision-makers but who do not need to be deeply embedded in the theory of data management and analytics, the Master’s degree provides a much deeper dive into the world of data.

Foundations of Project Management Certificate Program

In addition to the Project Management Strategy and the Advanced Project Management certificate programs, the Graham School will also launch, this fall, a new certificate called Foundations of Project Management.  This program introduces the fundamental managerial and technical aspects of modern project management and provides direct experience in the use of appropriate tools and techniques used for successful project execution. In addition to the basic theory and practice of project management, it also examines many of the “soft skills” inherent in successful project management, such as communication, interpersonal relationships, and problem-solving.  It may be completed either on-site or online.  Participants will earn 35 PDU’s.

The first online project management offering, and will launch September 27.
