Individual Courses

These lab manager training courses are designed to provide the specific knowledge needed to become proficient at a wide range of different management and leadership activities required from most lab managers. Individual lab manager courses are a good alternative to the certificate or category programs for experienced lab managers who need a little training in some specific areas, and want to investigate the courses individually. Each course is available online, containing a lecture video, supporting slides, activities to practice the skills, interactive elements, and a short quiz at the end.

Note: Each course is also included in full certificate programs and should be purchased as part of a certificate program if your goal is to receive a certification.
