Please Note:
Accepted students do not need to register online for Sessions One through Five.  However, Session Five runs in tandem with the 2009 Annual Meeting. If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in addition to your participation at the Business Acumen level, please notify Tai Danforth, Program Manager with your intentions as soon as possible.

A detailed agenda and copy of the course curriculum will be sent by the course facilitator, Brett Bolton in advance of each session by email.  A generic agenda for purposes of planning your travel arrangements is available under the “Agenda” link in the navigation bar above.  This agenda is subject to change for optional networking activities, so please watch your email for any updates and re-visit the generic agenda for additional information pertaining to optional networking activities as it becomes available.  Once students receive a copy of the roster, they are free to organize optional networking activities that do not conflict with the program's scheduled events.

If you have a key colleague who should be copied on all course communications, please email their contact information to Tai Danforth, Program Manager.
