Special Message to All Alumni: With the arrival of 2015, we imagine you are thinking about your learning aspirations for the new year. We invite you back to the Institute, to gain new insights, expand your repertorie of expertise and advance your skills.
As you know, our global systems of governance and the broad international development agenda are each faced with profound challenges that resonate across public and private sectors. A truly sustainable agenda requires visionary thinking, new paradigms, and individual champions of cooperation—so the world will be calling upon managers and leaders like you--and those in your network--to set the right policies, initiatives and campaigns that move the agenda forward.
To support your learning endeavors, we are doubling our regular discount for upcoming programmes delivered early in 2015.
Your network can benefit, too.
Alumni have always received a 10% discount on Executive Education programmes, and we are pleased to extend this holiday offer for an upgrade to a 20% discount—to you and to anyone that you refer to us for one of our three upcoming programmes, below.
This is applicable for the following three programmes, which begin in early 2015:
EXECUTIVE CERTIFICATE - Advocacy in International Affairs
Build your strategic communications and leadership skills to drive change in the global arena. Now in its 4th year, with a new format (three modules of 1-week each, spread over the Spring term). Begins 23 February.
EXECUTIVE CERTIFICATE - Environmental Governance
Gain new insights on cross-cutting issues of Food Security, Energy, Water, and Climate Change, as you learn how to lead a strategic, policy-related analysis for your organisation (delivered in two modules of 9 days each, in April and June).
EXECUTIVE COURSE: Leading in the Human Rights Council
Prepare to engage at your highest potential: advance your skills for personal effectiveness in negotiations and diplomacy (delivered over five evenings in early February 2015).
This offer is available to those alumni who earned a degree from the Graduate Institute, and we are also glad extend this offer to individuals who come via direct referral from alumni of the Institute--since referrals from alumni often make our best participants! Registration and application deadlines for each programme, along with the criteria to participate or enrol, are listed on each of the respective programme websites.
You can email us to express your own interest--or to refer a colleague, family member or friend for one of the above-mentioned programmes. And thanks in advance, for helping to spread the word!
