At Butler, education is a lifelong journey. Butler’s Executive Education certificates propel that journey in the form of skills mastery, career advancement, and tactical application.
Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel.
— Socrates
Why Butler Certificates?
Many certificate programs simply supply information. Butler Executive Education certificate programs mirror the University’s belief in experiential education. On this basis, our certificates provide a toolkit to actually apply concepts and walk students through live projects.
- Nationally recognized, locally embedded. Butler’s Executive Education certificates serve as continuing education and independent career advancement for aspiring leaders.
- Courses aren’t built in a philosophical vacuum.
- Butler certificates take students from concept to practical work-life application.
- Certificates are focused on driving value that fits into the lifestyle of working professionals.
Butler Executive Education was a perfect solution to the challenges of my daily life. Courses provide the perfect amount of exposure in a wide variety of business basics for those that don't have the time or inclination to ‘master’ all business concepts.
