The Graduate Certificate in Public Administration Leadership (GCPAL) requires the completion of four courses (12 semester units), plus any necessary prerequisite courses. With a graduate leadership certificate in public administration, students learn to do the right things. They gain real-world skills that allow them to identify, analyze, and evaluate political, managerial, and policy concerns faced by communities, governments, and citizens especially the poor, at-risk, minorities, and marginalized.

Students also develop the necessary confidence and competencies needed to implement innovative best practices grounded on inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility as well as social justice and environmental responsibility.
