Certificate Program for Individuals

The Certificate Program is a groundbreaking program of intensive study for leaders responsible for policy development and implementation in their jurisdictions. The Program is designed for public agency leaders and senior managers at the state, local, and tribal levels, within the juvenile justice, child welfare and related systems of care. Participants will convene at Georgetown University for one week to study and utilize the practices and policies identified through the Center's initial and ongoing investigation of evidence, research and practice knowledge. The Center will approach all of these issues from a multi-systems perspective -- a particularly important aspect of the work of the Center. Faculty members, who will teach the modules within each Certificate Program session, are comprised of experts from across the country and within the Georgetown University faculty.
