Graduate Diploma in Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership (DPNL)

Description

A blend of executive-style, online and in-class courses, allowing students to study while working and to remain in home communities during the program (and come to Ottawa for two-week, intensive courses in the summer).
The Master of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership (MPNL) program is the only graduate curriculum in Canada that offers specialized skills for leadership positions in the philanthropic and nonprofit sector. Housed in Canada’s oldest and largest School of Public Policy and Administration, the MPNL program and its sister program, the Graduate Diploma in Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership (DPNL) program, are designed for both experienced and aspiring professionals. The programs benefit from innovative research by faculty, fellows, and post-doctoral and doctoral students.
 

What both programs offer:

  • A versatile set of skills, including leadership, strategy, financial management, and fundraising, all of which prepare graduates for leadership positions in the nonprofit and philanthropic sector.
  • An opportunity to engage with research and sector professionals to think critically about how to advance social and organizational change.
  • Experiential, professional learning opportunities that prepare students to attain leadership-track positions.
Networks of graduates and experienced professionals to support career development.

The MPNL program consists of: seven core (required) courses; four elective courses; and a Capstone Project conducted with a community organization. Four of the core courses are taken during two Summer Institutes. The DPNL consists of two core (required) courses during the Summer Institute and four electives.
