Free Business Courses for Public Libraries

The first two programs include online training as well as a certification exam at the end of the training.  Members who successfully pass the exam will be certified through the institute and receive a digital certificate that they can print!

• Project Management Essentials Certification – This training program gives the student a good understanding of the critical aspects of Project Management and what steps are required to be successful.
•  Six Sigma White Belt Certification – Learn about the most popular process improvement methodology being used by businesses today.  You’ll gain an understanding of Six Sigma, the different Six Sigma certifications, and why companies are using it.

In addition to these two certification programs we also offer courses in Business Management and Misinformation Training.

MSI dedicates a lot of time giving back to the communities it serves.  Many of these contributions are made through the MSIcares philanthropy program.  Most actions that MSI has taken through MSIcares have revolved around financial contributions to needy charities.  This initiative is MSI’s first program designed specifically to help communities through training and enrichment of knowledge through free training.  We realize the important role that libraries play in our communities and we are very excited to be offering these programs.  The Critical Business Skills Initiative is starting with five programs however there are plans to add many additional programs in the future.  If there is a business skill which we feel can help someone gain employment, we hope to eventually add it to this initiative.
