ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa., Sept. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This fall, Elizabethtown College's School for Graduate and Professional Studies (SGPS) will launch a Family Business Graduate and Entrepreneurship Certificate. Starting on Oct. 17, the first cohort will commence, which aims to foster students' entrepreneurial spirit through developing their skills in business ideation, leadership, strategic planning, management, and more.

The 12-credit certificate includes four online courses which can be completed in as little as one year with innovative courses like "Dreams to Reality: Where are you in the business ownership cycle?", Strategy and Gaining a Competitive Edge, Leading as Your Business Grows, Dynamics, Governing, Managing, and Succession Planning. The certificate can also be stacked into Etown's 36-credit Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Master of Strategic Leadership (MSL) or our 32-credit Post-Professional Occupational Therapy Doctorate (OTD).
