Public Leadership Credential

Don't want a full Masters degree? Peek at this . . . oh yeah, it's Harvard.

They sent me an invitation to apply today.

Has anyone done it ?
Doesn't really fit with my goals but... putting HKS on a resume might be worth the time

 

$2490 for a semester of work (or up to a year, including the capstone) seems pretty cheap for Harvard.

 

I like it a lot! Note some synchronous Zoom meetings with fellow students are part of the curriculum.

 

I did not see that. Thanks for catching it.

Is that mandated or is that part of the "optional" work?

 

I wouldn't be surprised if it's mandated, but it might be worth inquiring (and noting your work as a first responder on shifts that limit you from synchronous appointments).

 

The PLC technically isn't credit per se, but completing the PLC can effectively function as credit towards the HKS Mid-Career MPA or the HES ALM, Government.
