While we currently do not offer scholarships or funding specifically for the AI Leadership Certificate program, we do offer an affordable tuition rate with no additional fees for out-of-state students. Students who pursue the certificate must also pursue a degree such as the MBA in order to be eligible for financial aid. We are committed to providing our students with all of the tools necessary to succeed in business within multiple industries, including access to affordable education and financial support.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_cta btn_style=&#8221;see-through&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;p&#8221; button_color=&#8221;default&#8221; link_type=&#8221;regular&#8221; alignment=&#8221;right&#8221; alignment_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; alignment_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; display=&#8221;block&#8221; link_text=&#8221;Explore Funding Opportunities&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/live-deltastate.pantheonsite.io\/admissions\/graduate-funding-opportunities\/&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Program Goals<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221;][vc_column_text]Modern AI practitioners manage a diverse range of responsibilities from non-technical leadership and strategic business development to governance, executive collaboration and client-focused program design.
