The NAMSS Leadership Certificate Program is a three-day interactive course designed for MSPs to expand on their experiences and gain the skills, confidence, and understanding to be stronger leaders within the industry. A continuation of the online portion of the program, the course is comprised of independent study with online modules to complete before you arrive, and will focus on a variety of topics, including team leadership, negotiations, critical thinking, and communications skills.

We recommend completing the online modules before the start of the in-person session. Otherwise, the online module must be completed within 30 days of taking the Leadership Certificate Program in order to receive your certificate.
