Preparing Tomorrow’s Leaders:
The EDMC Executive Development Program (EDP)

At EDMC, we’re just as committed to the professional success of our employees as we are to providing quality education for our students.

A good example of that commitment is our Executive Development Program. It’s designed to provide specific training opportunities to people within the company who have shown the potential to help lead our company forward in our mission of becoming the nation’s preeminent leader in higher education.

The EDP is part of our effort of continuous improvement through collaborative partnerships with all EDMC stakeholders. It’s a reflection of our culture and our core values of responsibility, participation, and personal and professional development.

EDMC’s Executive Development Program is the operations focus of our overall executive growth training initiative.

Participants: Executives-in-Training

Goal: Enhance operational leadership and effectiveness

Strategy: Develop a learning-centered environment through coursework and hands-on experience with mentors

Tactical implementation: Webinar training, face-to-face interactive learning, and practical experience

A key part of the EDP that is also available to all EDMC employees is the Leadership/Management Focus:

Participants: Executives-in-Training; newly appointed Executive Committee members; high potential leaders; current Executive Committee members

Goal: Extend the reach and consistency of leadership training at EDMC

Strategy: Integrate current executive leadership programs into a new format with the flexibility to meet individual content and scheduling requirements
