Oral Roberts University’s Certificate of Empowered Leadership is a 100% online faculty-led program that can provide you with the knowledge and skills to grow into leadership and, in turn, learn how to empower others to achieve extraordinary things through the Holy Spirit.
In addition, our commitment to educating your whole person - mind, body, and spirit - can truly set you apart as a Spirit-empowered leader, as you apply this to your workplace, home, church, and much more. Students watch videos, dive into core textbooks, post to discussions, and complete practical projects. In addition, regular live webinars allow students to learn from their instructors and peers.
Our unique mission to develop Spirit-empowered leaders will enable you to thrive as a team member in workplace contexts. This unique academic award takes 80% less time than an undergraduate Leadership major but can be a stepping stone in your career.
This 100% online program features courses directly from ORU's "Whole Leaders for the World" curriculum.
Also, upon successful completion, one would be able to transfer the 9 credit hours into a B.S. in Leadership Development.
This certificate is 100% online so you can achieve and complete this 9-hour certificate while balancing work and family commitments. It could take you as little as 6 months when taking one 3-credit-hour course at a time, delivered across 7-week terms.
