Participating in the program is a significant commitment, and involves completing three multi-week online courses, taking six Mini-workshops, and connecting and sharing expertise with others in the program via Quarterly Skills Share sessions and our online community platform. Throughout the program, participants consider real-world community management tasks and workflows by developing materials using CSCCE frameworks, reflecting on community engagement philosophies with their peers, and sharing work products during course and workshop live sessions.

Learners receive a digital badge for each course they complete, as well as a final badge (shown here) and certificate signifying that they are a CSCCE certified community manager.
