Post-EMBA Graduate Certificate Program
Graduates desiring a more
formal complement to their Executive MBA may take advantage of the
Post-EMBA Graduate Certificate Program. This program is designed to
build on the current EMBA by providing additional depth in a
particular field of interest. Alumni may design their own certificate
program with an advisor or take a pre-packaged certificate from those
available in international business, marketing, information systems,
HRM, accounting and other areas.
Per-Anders
Hallqvist , EMBA alumnus from the class of 1999 and President
of Patria Hagglunds, North America, decided to return to GW to get his
Post-EMBA Graduate Certificate. He had just been promoted to a new
position and was given the opportunity to turn around some failing
business units within his company. Hallqvist said, “I needed to gain
some specific knowledge in the business turnaround area. The GW EMBA
Graduate Certificate Program offered the perfect way for me to
accomplish this. I was able to design the graduate certificate, with
the help of Dr. Dyer and Dr. Lenn, to meet my particular needs in the
business turnaround field.”
