About the Youth Program Management and Evaluation Graduate Certificate Program


The 12-hour Graduate Certificate in Youth Agency Management and Administration is designed to prepare professionals who are either working directly with adolescents and young adults or are involved in education and research related to youth. The certificate is designed to assist youth professionals to develop and apply resources for successful implementation and management of youth-serving programs that give youth opportunities to learn, lead, connect, and serve. The program addresses the need for advanced education based on research and policy for optimal youth outcomes through a strengths-based curriculum. This certificate is available only through enrollment in the Innovative Digital Education Alliance (IDEA, formerly GPIDEA), a consortium of multiple high-quality universities. The program requires Foundations of Youth Development, Design and Evaluation of Youth Programs, Youth Development Personnel and Program Management, and one elective from the following topics:

  • Grant Development and Management 
  • Youth Policy 
  • Youth Mental Health 
  • Positive Youth Development in Community Settings 
  • Using Technology for Positive Youth Development 
  • Youth Professionals as Consumers of Research
