    Cultural Competence Co-Curricular Certificate

    The Cultural Competence Co-Curricular Certificate (C4) engages University of North Georgia Undergraduate and Graduate Students with the opportunity to enhance one’s cultural diversity understanding. C4 is crafted to offer students participants an opportunity to learn more about the ideals of diversity, equity, and inclusion while providing a greater understanding of how we can and should work together to build a stronger and more inclusive Nighthawk community. Participants will also gain valuable knowledge and skills that will enable them to more effectively work and lead in the workplace.

    The C4 Initiative is offered in partnership with Mike Cottrell College of Business Personal Roadmap to Ongoing Success (PROS) Program. In conjunction to C4 being offered to all students, PROS students do have the ability to participate for a Professional Development Credit for the PROS Programs.
