- A Knowledge Certificate (level 1) tests your understanding of the course content. To earn this certificate, you simply need to pass a proctored exam of multiple choice questions. Once you’ve earned a knowledge certificate, you’re qualified to take the competence assessment for the same course.
- A Competence Assessment (level 2) tests your application of leadership principles in the form of Q&A written responses, video entries based on a prompt, and a live one-on-one interview.
- The Leadership Mastery Certificate is awarded to a principle-centered leader who has excelled in mastering all four leadership courses from LeaderU. A portfolio evaluation is the last step in earning a Leadership Mastery Certificate. This includes a presentation, description of projects and artifacts, endorsements from others, and resume review.
