The MVP (Managing with Vision and Proficiency) Professional Development Program is undergoing some exciting changes. After collecting feedback from current, past and prospective customers as well as instructors, the Centre for Continuing Education is happy to announce six new programs that will enable participants to concentrate their learning and skill development around valued core business competencies.
The new Essentials Programs provide participants with flexibility to choose components that fit their learning and needs while earning a McMaster University Certificate of Completion* in a focused area of concentration.
Programs include:
- Business Essentials Program
- Communication Essentials Program
- Innovation Essentials Program
- Leadership Essentials Program

Individuals who are in the process of earning a general Managing with Vision and Proficiency (MVP) Certificate of Completion have the option of finishing their general Certificate of Completion or applying workshops they’ve successfully completed towards one or more programs.
