Certificate of Leadership Excellence

Business meeting with 5 people

The Certificate of Leadership Excellence allows participants to define their learning experience in alignment with their personal and career goals and to stay up to date with the latest in leadership, management, and communication, while being knowledgeable about trends that could disrupt corporate strategy. Programs taught by Fisher faculty cover some of the most in-demand subjects being discussed by organizations today, including leadership, finance, supply chain management, and more. Participants in the Certificate of Leadership Excellence program can choose which programs are most advantageous for their individual professional development, applying the knowledge gained in each program in a capstone project.
