Do I need a bachelor’s, or will a certificate do?
Certificates cover a tool. The bachelor’s is what most employers treat as the degree. If the job posting lists a bachelor’s as required, a certificate will not substitute.
How is accreditation handled?
There is no required programmatic accreditor. ACBSP or IACBE accreditation is a voluntary business-school signal on top of institutional accreditation. NASPAA applies to public-affairs master’s programs, not to this CIP.
