All live sessions will take place on the third Thursday of each month from 7-8:30pm Eastern (4-5:30pm Pacific), unless otherwise stated.

Attendance is required for at least seven of the live sessions to earn a certificate. However, the sessions are recorded and available to those enrolled in the cohort to review. 

You can lead IG and RIM work through projects, stakeholder relationships, and organizational change, even when you have no direct reports. The program is designed for experienced practitioners taking on greater responsibility, including new managers, established managers, and professionals who lead through influence.

You will combine focused self-guided learning with live cohort sessions and practical workplace application. The nine-month format gives you time to try leadership concepts in real situations, discuss your experience with peers, and build on that learning through reflection and reinforcement over time.

No. The Professional Leadership Course is open to both ARMA members and nonmembers.

However, ARMA members receive discounted course pricing. The member rate is $1,449, compared with $1,749 for nonmembers. An annual ARMA membership is $210, which means a nonmember could purchase both an annual membership and the course for $1,659—still saving $90 compared with the nonmember course rate alone.

Plus, you’ll receive all the additional benefits of ARMA membership for the year.
