Most BOCEP learners are mid and senior-level professionals. In course evaluations, the vast majority said they "learned a great deal" in their courses and that the courses met or exceeded all of their expectations. What did they like best about their courses? the knowledge they gain from their instructors, interactions with other learners, the overall quality of education, and the usefulness of what they learn.

The BOCEP learning model works because courses are designed by planning professionals who understand the challenges of trying to be well-informed while managing multiple deadlines and personal matters. Our courses give you the time to learn, practice, reflect and discuss with other professionals.
