Executive Programs for Individuals

In the fast-paced and ever-evolving job market, staying relevant and acquiring new skills is crucial, with executive education playing an increasingly vital role in preparing professionals for success. Whether you seek executive training opportunities to take your career to the next level, to lead transformative change within your organization, or to be part of solving today’s most pressing challenges to shape a better world, explore our many open enrollment program offerings—from multi-week comprehensive leadership programs to short topic-focused learning experiences.  

The Columbia difference 

Columbia SIPA's world-renowned faculty and practitioners, including Noble-Prize recipients, heads of governments, policy experts, corporate executives, and organizational leaders, bring unrivaled expertise, cutting-edge research, and real-world experience to the classroom, so you will learn directly from those on the ground actively engaged in informing and shaping policy around critical global issues.  Our extensive partnerships with leading organizations in New York City and across the country and world, as well as our incorporation of state-of-the-art technologies, innovative curriculum, and original case studies, further differentiates our courses from other executive education programs.  

Innovative instructional methodologies 

Our courses are delivered through a range of in-person, virtual, asynchronous, and blended formats to accommodate the busy schedules of mid to senior-level professionals. Our innovative instructional methodologies often include interactive classroom sessions, simulations, feedback-intensive group exercises, peer coaching, industry panels, action learning projects, leadership assessments, and site visits. Courses also use the case study method utilizing original audiovisual case studies on issues of public sector innovation.   

Courses that bridge theory and practice 

The interactive and experiential format of our programs effectively bridges theory and practice to prepare you with the in-depth knowledge, innovative thinking, and analytical problem-solving skills to successfully navigate complex and rapidly evolving global challenges to address the most critical policy issues of today. Through project work and the in-depth analysis of case studies, you will gain real-world practice applying what you have learned in the course to solve current challenges, with defined, value-added takeaways. A Certificate of Participation is awarded upon completion of all our executive programs.
