About the Foundational Skills Certificate
The EDGE Supervisors Series Foundational Skills Certificate helps recently appointed managers and supervisors transition into their new roles. It can also serve as a refresher course for more experienced supervisors seeking to update their knowledge of UArizona's philosophy of management.
Seven interactive modules, each about 15 minutes in length, impart high-level, high-impact information that you can put into action quickly. Obtaining the right tools is an important part of any learning experience, so this certificate includes checklists, worksheets, and strategy guides.
