Multicultural Education Certificate

Enhance your work by analyzing your cultural development experiences and learning how to provide professional services in a more equitable way.

Social conditions and political circumstances impact people differently depending on their backgrounds, lifestyles and origins. As such, culturally responsive practices are crucial for success as our world grows increasingly complex

The Multicultural Education Certificate Program (MECP) prepares professionals to better serve diverse clients in any industry, including:

  • Education
  • Healthcare
  • Law Enforcement
  • Social services
  • Non-profits
  • Arts
  • Military
  • Corporate business
Testimonial
Our learners bring many different identities and life experiences with them to our after-school programs. To meet their needs, it’s critical that we have the knowledge, skills, and mindset required for a culturally responsive system. The MECP process brought us another step closer to achieving this.

The MECP program has been extremely helpful and insightful with our Community Education Afterschool Programs.
