Certificate of Executive Leadership: Cornell University

Certificate of Executive Leadership: Cornell University

This is the first online learning experience I have had and I have to say I feel I learned a lot and at the same time the value of the program of study is hard to distinguish from in class learning as it is identical to the course offerings at Cornell. The instructors were mostly PhDs and the course content was developed by the Johnson School of Management and the Cornell University School of Hotel and Hospitality Management. The credits are also ACE accredited. Overall I would recommend eCornell as an educational provider of distinction to anyone contemplating taking online courses in management or business. It was a manageable roster.

Certificate Information

  • LSM503: Scenario Planning

The University of Notre Dame's Executive Certificate in Negotiation

As for my next foray I am registered for The University of Notre Dame's Executive Certificate of Negotiation to start in May, 2007.

Course includes:


Negotiation Essentials

Advanced Negotiations

Strategies for Conflict Management


"Students acquire new skills and a new certificate that will serve as important milestones as they complete each course in the track. Students who complete all three courses will earn 4.8 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and receive a total of four certificates – three course certificates and an Executive Certificate in Negotiation – from the University of Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business."
