our goal is for participants to be able to identify savings in their own organizations that will more than offset the PMD program’s tuition.

Because we deliver executive education that pays off.

The unique features of this program make the basic concepts and principles of finance and accounting easier to both learn and apply by:

• Involving participants in small group projects that allow them to compare perspectives and personal experience.

• Giving participants practice in the use of up-to-date resources and technologies.

• Moving at a fast pace and allowing people to learn in a stimulating environment.

• Using a variety of cases that demonstrate the applicability of the concepts and principles.

This program serves managers and decision makers who have limited knowledge of finance and accounting and want to improve their ability to:

• Communicate effectively with finance and accounting specialists.

• Incorporate financial analysis into plans and strategies.

• Understand and use the major financial statements and reports.

• Use financial information to make better decisions.

our partnEr organizations includE:

We have enjoyed using PMD as a way to expose our emerging leaders to some formalized business practices. We have found it useful in broadening their perspectives on business practices as well as connecting with people from other businesses in the community. This also creates a broader sense of community as they get a window into other business practices, which can help us learn how to serve our customers more effectively.

What our participants report:

The PMD Program is a wonderful experience for developing leaders who are on the leadership track in your organization and are contemplating returning to school to obtain a master’s degree or for that employee you would like to grow and develop. It taught me to move beyond my department to a global view of the organization and how to value and utilize the team in the pursuit of growing and developing your organization. Great experience!”
