In March 2016, Mackenzie's Continuing Education Center launched a specialization course in Networks, Participation and New Forms of Social Organization. The aim of this program is to train professionals from governmental, non-governmental and business organizations who work in the management of public policies, programs and projects in the socio-cultural area, with the aim of installing innovative dynamics based on collaborative and networked work, strengthening the social capital of the groups and institutions in which they work.
The course is aimed at leaders, professionals, managers and opinion formers working in government bodies at all levels; foundations; institutes; NGOs; civil associations, cooperatives; independent funds; financing agencies; movements and companies involved in the management of socio-cultural policies, programs and projects in various areas.
Those interested can take part as a) students on the postgraduate course and once they have completed the course load and passed the requirements, they will receive a specialist diploma; or b) in individual modules which will be recognized as extension courses.
Classes will start in March 2016. Those interested in finding out more about the course - workload, curriculum structure, fees, etc. - and the application process can access the following link: goo.gl/fB39w0
