About Executive Education

It starts with you and your company's goals

Your company needs specific answers to its challenges backed by research and relevant theoretical insights. What are the hot-button issues industry contemporaries are dealing with? What challenges keep them up at night? More importantly, how can your business successfully navigate potential roadblocks, or improve performance? What issues are likely to surface in the years to come? Our faculty researches the answers to those questions and more, then designs custom classes that address both best practices and “next” practices so that forward-thinking strategies can be implemented.

The Executive Education program at the C.T. Bauer College of Business, University of Houston, offers premier executive and professional development programs to the Houston business community. Designed with mid-level and senior executives in mind, classes and workshops in this non-degree program are carefully crafted to reflect client needs.

The UH Executive Education program, a natural outgrowth of the Center for Executive Development, established at UH in 1948, helps companies enhance performance by offering relevant coursework crafted by the best and brightest faculty with a broad range of expertise.
Classes range from one day to several weeks. The educational experience unfolds at your campus or ours. The customized programs are relevant and measurable with follow through to ensure implementation long term.
