Tribal finance program now online

ASU has launched its Tribal Financial Manager Certificate program in a distance-learning format, providing access to tribal professionals who live in remote areas.

The program offers a number of ways to earn the certificate: online, through ASU's Blackboard system; by listening to audio lectures on CDs, through iTunes or on an MP3 player; or, by way of a three-day session at ASU.

“If you’re driving a long distance, you can listen to the audio portion. We tried to provide as many options as possible,” said Pat Mariella, American Indian Policy Institute director.
