Our Program
The Master of Nonprofit Leadership (MNPL) program emphasizes the latest in leadership and management theory and the practical skills and dexterity required of nonprofit leaders. Students work with a distinguished mix of Seattle University faculty and practitioner instructors, learn with a cohort of peers, and build their networks among nonprofit and philanthropic leaders in the region.
The Graduate Certificate in Fundraising Leadership (GCFL) is the first of its kind in Washington, and is designed to meet the growing demand for effective fundraisers. A strong theoretical grounding provides the foundation for classes that teach fundraising fundamentals, individual giving, grantwriting, and financial management.
