Georgetown University’s Certificate in Education Finance: Getting smart on education finance and strategy to impact student success
Although financial and resource allocation issues touch every aspect of U.S. public education, these critical issues are often not fully understood.

Launched in winter 2018, the accessible, flexible, hands-on program is designed to serve a broad swath of working professionals: policymakers; campus, network and central office leaders; analysts and graduate students; grant makers; and nonprofit leaders.
Applications for the spring cohort with a 2-day residency March 30 – 31, 2021 are being accepted now.
