Nonprofit organizations play a vital role in the care and development of our society and environment. To fulfill their missions, these organizations need dedicated, trained professionals with the desire and ability to make positive differences in their communities. Nonprofit professionals reap intrinsic and financial rewards while making a difference in society.
Nonprofit Leadership Student Association (NLSA) and the Minor in Nonprofit Administration are degree-enhancing programs at UM that provide students with additional skills and knowledge to work in the nonprofit sector. After completion of program requirements, students receive a National Certificate from Nonprofit Leadership Alliance and/or a Minor in Nonprofit Administration from the University of Montana.
The NLA certification and minor programs at UM are designed to teach skills in the following areas: communication, youth and adult development, human resource development and supervision, nonprofit program planning, public relations, marketing, fundraising, financial management, and board and committee development.
To earn Nonprofit Leadership Alliance certification and/or a Minor in Nonprofit Administration, students must complete course requirements, and complete a 300-hour internship. NLA Certificate students must also attend one American Humanics Management Institute national conference, and actively participate in the Nonprofit Leadership Student Association at UM.
