Carla Koffel

Columbia Business School’s Advanced Management Program is a holistic executive education program. The academic sessions are facilitated by thought-provoking instructors. The individuals who comprise the program team make the Columbia experience uniquely rewarding. I do not think this experience can be replicated by another institution. The people make the difference.

FAQ

Each cohort of our Advanced Management Program is selected through careful review of each candidate’s background, achievements, and learning goals. We not only aim to accept leaders with a wealth of knowledge and successes but also those who have a curiosity about themselves, are willing to view their strongest convictions with humility, and believe in continuous learning and progress to discover what else they can do for their organization and themselves.

To apply, please submit an application form, and share a bit of information about your background, goals, and business challenges. Then you will be asked to set up a call with a member on the program team.

The blended format of the Advanced Management Program is offered twice per year, with cohort options in the fall and spring. Each program session is 22 weeks long, and involves a mix of synchronous and asynchronous content throughout the week.

Virtual workshops and lectures take place at scheduled intervals each week, and independent assignments and reflections can be completed on your own time so long as you submit the required materials by the assigned deadline.

Your Advanced Management Program experience spans well beyond the last day of the program. After the program ends, we encourage you to stay connected to your new network.

Program participants have the opportunity to participate in virtual learning sessions like webinars and conferences and receive direct access to the Columbia Business School network, including benefits like invitations to worldwide alumni events, access to unique career content, an online networking platform, the alumni directory, and more. Since professional development is a lifelong journey, Advanced Management Program graduates also receive a 25 percent tuition discount on most executive education programs.

Please note that you are responsible for complying with all visa and other applicable US regulations. Because our programs are short-term professional development programs, and not degree granting, generally our students do not require a student visa, but a B1 business visa.

For information regarding travel into the United States, refer to the US State Department website. Under University policy, we cannot contact an embassy directly on behalf of a participant. Please note that the visa process may be very lengthy, therefore we strongly encourage all participants to begin the process immediately upon enrollment.
