Leadership Matters
It takes a diverse set of skills to supervise in today's ever-changing and complex world. Leadership that is a step ahead of change is priority one. In response, we are launching the Commonwealth Supervisor Certificate Program (CSCP) in January 2013.
THE BENEFITS YOU CAN EXPECT
The CSCP is designed to provide practical knowledge and skills that you can begin using immediately. You will learn how to lead with confidence, positively affect morale, and guide your staff to achieve mission critical goals in the face of our changing working environment. Equipped with the appropriate knowledge, skills and strategies, you will be energized and prepared to tackle the challenge to do more with less.

The program runs from January to May 2013 and consists of five one-day courses. Classes will be offered at locations across the Commonwealth.
The curriculum builds skills and competencies in the areas listed below:
• Communication
