Geared for individuals looking to expand their careers in the creative industries, the program curriculum aligns with trending employer demand for effectiveness in leadership, marketing, fundraising, finance, critical thinking and decisive administration.
“The arts and creative industries in Los Angeles and Orange Counties have grown into a multi-billion dollar sector. As they continue to grow and change, the sector’s organizations will require leaders qualified to manage them, serve on their boards and advocate for them,” said Stephen Barker, Dean of the Trevor School. “By bridging the gap between traditional education and on-the-job training, this new certificate program will give creative industry professionals the leadership skills they need for success.”
“We believe this program benefits arts practitioners as well – visual artists, dancers, actors, musicians – wanting a business foundation to move their own careers forward,” said Deborah Stansbury Sunday, Assistant Dean of the Trevor School.
The Certificate in Arts Management program leverages faculty from the Merage School’s MBA Programs as well as practitioners and guest speakers from the arts industry. This certificate is the newest addition to the Office of Executive Education’s professional development and certificate programs.
