Program Overview

Program Description:

City University of Seattle's Technology Management Graduate Certificate program is designed for new or current technology managers who wish to refresh and update their skills and also for technical/non-technical professionals who wish to advance their careers into technology leadership roles. Upon successful completion of the program, you will have gained the ability to: manage a technology project; manage the personal transitions that are a part of moving from peer to leader; lead, coach, and motivate the technology team; analyze a business process and identify opportunities for technology; and develop a business plan that integrates technology into the business enterprise.You will also acquire the skills to execute a personal career development plan, increase your communication confidence (presentations, meeting management, proposal writing); influence others (peers and superiors) to adopt your ideas; and network within and outside of your organization. With your graduate certificate, you will be well qualified to advance beyond single skill focused positions to seek out positions with increasing responsibility in the technology field. Currently, most of our graduates hold mid- to senior-level management positions at companies that produce or interact with technology products, or are team leaders in development, implementation and technical support.
