Leadership and Management Program

{6396}

The Leadership and Management Program, which was previously administered and is currently endorsed by the Canadian Nurses Association, was transferred to McMaster in 1993. The Program is offered to Registered Nurses and health care professionals located throughout Canada and internationally by means of distance education. It is also offered locally through individual self-directed study and tutorial.

The course work is designed to familiarize the student with the theory and application necessary to function effectively in a formal or informal leadership position. Content includes theory and techniques of management, leadership, organizational development and change, motivation, labour relations, legal implications, ethics, finance and the Canadian Health Care System.

Enrolment is by approval of the Director. Further information may be obtained through the Program Office (905) 525-9140 ext. 22409.
