This certificate consists of a series of four graduate-level courses designed to provide graduates with cutting-edge methods based on research confirmed in practice in all types of organizations and industries. The goal of the Graduate Certificate in Strategic Leadership is to provide students with information about advanced concepts and techniques which will enable them to provide superior leadership in all types of organizations and at all levels regardless of their individual specialties or professions. The emphasis is on the strategic rather than the tactical and includes both the theoretical foundation as well as the application of these theories to real-world situations.

Regionally accredited, Trident is made up of three key differentiators, that create a dynamic learning approach like no other. EdActive™ Learning is unique because the learning outcomes prepare our students for the workplace by enhancing their ability to think, learn, and solve problems. 100% accessible online, combined with no daily micromanagement promotes a flexible learning environment that enables adult learners to excel at a manageable pace. Affordability is key to our overall success for our students. We keep our tuition costs as low as possible, so the students receive an excellent education at a great value.

The idea for a 100% online university was conceived several years prior to its formal organization in 1998 by Drs. Yoram and Edith Neumann. A precursor to Trident’s EdActive™ Learning Approach, Yoram developed the Robust Learning Model (RLM) with several contributions from Edith. The model was presented for the first time at the professional conference of the Academy of Business Administration in 1996 in Athens, Greece, where it was received with a standing ovation. The RLM was developed by the Neumanns for distance and online learning and is recognized as a best practice for online education worldwide.
