“Winning the Education Award in 2014 and 2015 has helped tremendously in building the brand recognition of The Center and attracting new and exciting opportunities, as well as allowing us to capitalize on increased interest in our executive leadership programs. While we systematically continue to connect with program alumni post-programs, it was rewarding to see how very enthusiastic they were to re-engage and give us feedback through the ranking’s survey process. We look forward to the revised 2016 program!” - Garth D. Headley, Associate Director of Public Affairs, FIU Center for Leadership
