What courses for certificate program Jennifer Morgan 22 Jun 2004 11:05 EST

I did my graduate work in Health Administration, which also had a lot of useful courses... but not right on target. The best part was my master's thesis work which was self-selected and done on establishing training programs in research administration.

I would like to see an accredited distance learning master's level certificate program established that could be accessed by research administrators from their home institutions.  It has been discussed by the professional society leadership for years, but just hasn't come to pass.

What courses would you recommend should one be developed?

No, but I took an M.P.A. (basically an M.B.A. but with focus on
not-for-profit and public sector) and that has worked out pretty well.
There are many institutions which offer this degree.

administration

I am aware of the CRA (Certified Research Administrator) that is offered
by the Research Administrators Certification Council. However, do you
know of any academic institution that has a degree program or a
certificate program in Research Administration?
