Ways to Get Started

I personally know that the M.A.O.L. prepared me to be a better leader and manage multiple projects. The Brandman* program enabled me to take what I learned and apply in the workplace right away.
Aimee A. | MA, Organizational Leadership
*Brandman University is now UMass Global
It expanded my understanding of how people interact, revealed shortfalls within those interactions and allowed me to use newly developed skills to fill needed areas in communication and leadership.
Angelo C. | MA, Organizational Leadership,
I would recommend Brandman* for a quality education to anyone. I know the faculty is absolutely committed to a quality education. They’ll make sure that you’ll get what you’re coming there for, the knowledge you need.
