Advanced Management Education Program

NMSDC's custom executive program will be held at the J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, from June 6- 10, 2010.

This program is designed to provide certified, established, expansion-oriented MBEs with the tools and skills needed to achieve and sustain accelerated growth. Combining NMSDC's knowledge of MBEs with Kellogg's world-class ability to develop and deliver leading-edge executive education, this four-day management program is unique. It will help high potential MBEs achieve the next level of business success. 

The program distills NMSDC's institutional knowledge, as well as countless interviews with corporate buyers and MBEs, into a curriculum that is focused on the most managerially relevant topics to MBEs. In the tradition that made Kellogg a world-renowned business school, this curriculum uses interactive, team-based study. 

For maximum results, each class will be limited to 45 participants and the curriculum will be custom tailored to the needs of that class. This dynamic course design is achieved by surveying the class and structuring the course content accordingly.
