Certificate in Employee Resource Group (ERG) Leadership
As you advance through your journey as an ERG leader, the ERG leadership certificate can help you not only during your time as an ERG leader, but also strengthen your skills for future, non-ERG leadership roles. The ERG Certificate program will help move you ahead on your journey from where you are now, to your next role..
While you learn, you accumulate points toward earning the certificate. This unique program offers participants several ways to accumulate the points needed to earn the certificate. Many of the methodologies are focused on work that will not only help expand your own learning, but also will build the knowledge base of your membership. You will:
- Customize your curriculum and learning
- Get an immediate return on investment (ROI) from the certificate program
- Solve some of your organization’s issues
- Create and share learning materials that are usable with your ERG members and multiple ERG leaders NOW and in the future
