Alvernia University Holds Information Session on May 15 for new Masters in Organizational Leadership Degree
Reading, PA (PRWEB) May 07, 2014 -- Prospective students interested in learning more about the master’s in organizational leadership (MOL) program at Alvernia University can have all of their questions answered Thursday, May 15, during an information session for this new program.
Travis Berger, MOL program coordinator will be in the Alvernia University Upland Center, room 227, from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. to explain the program curriculum, requirements and application process.
This selective program is offered in a small cohort model to promote collaboration and professional growth. Classes are offered in the evenings at Alvernia’s main campus in Reading and are delivered in traditional, blended and online formats. Students who enroll in the fall cohort should graduate in less than two years.
The curriculum focuses on developing the knowledge, skills, abilities and behaviors essential for effectively leading teams, groups and organizations. By embracing a multidisciplinary approach, students gain a holistic perspective necessary for making decisions in today’s complex business environment.
Designed for a wide range of technical and functional experts, supervisors, managers, project managers, and executives, the program develops the critical thinking, communication, teamwork and interpersonal skills pivotal for motivating and engaging employees, generating organizational strategy, and driving long-term superior organizational performance.
Alvernia’s MOL program follows the guidelines established by the International Leadership Association for leadership programs and incorporates the best practices of the Center for Creative Leadership and Harvard Business School.
This program is geared to the working professional and Alvernia recognizes that this type of student has different needs than traditional students. That’s why this in-demand leadership program was created with flexible scheduling and learning options.
