SPONSORSHIP

Sponsorship allows employers to contribute to their employee’s professional growth without sacrificing his or her presence in the organization. Employers also benefit from actively developing and retaining their top talent. And because each course gives students real-world tools and techniques to start using as soon as they learn them, sponsors see immediate results.

Why is this program good for my organization?
There is an immediate payback: students can apply what they learn immediately on the job. They also complete the degree in 19 months—with no career interruption—rather than the four years one would expect for a part-time program.

Sponsorship is a way to recognize and reward exceptional performance and to announce that candidates are being groomed for advancement.

By presenting sponsorship as a reward, firms can relatively inexpensively enhance firm loyalty among the best and the brightest of young and middle managers—all while reaping the rewards of the knowledge gained.

Sponsorship can motivate exceptional employees to evaluate their futures and articulate their desired career path at the firm.
