Transformative Systems Leadership

About

The Advanced Certificate Program in Transformative Systems Leadership (TSL) is designed for nurses who aspire to advance their leadership skills, build their networks, and prepare for current and future-oriented strategic leadership roles in the ever-changing health care environment.

This flexible and highly collaborative program integrates current evidence, innovative strategies and tools to prepare students as skilled systems thinkers, communicators, creative problem-solvers, and effective change agents within local, regional, national, or global health care contexts. Students are able to pursue rich and varied clinical placements based on self-defined leadership goals. Through exposure to a robust selection of coursework students gain skills and insights that are readily transferable to current work settings and to their career advancement. Graduates are eligible, depending on employment role and work history, to apply for nursing administration/executive certification exams offered through the American Nurses Credentialing Center of the American Nurses Association and the American Organization for Nursing Leadership.
