Business Management InstituteThank you to those who joined us August 3-7, 2020! 2020 BMI - "The Virtual Experience" was a success! Designed to Avoid Zoom Fatigue
Meaningful NEW Course Learning Outcomes … Responding to 2020 Realities
Update May 13, 2020 from Pamela Hemann, FASAE, CAE All the great courses, time with BMI faculty, special connections, and access to a high-quality professional development can be yours in an otherwise empty landscape for learning in these current “lock-down” times. BMI dates will be August 3-7, 2020 – slightly expanded because we don’t expect your 2020 BMI Virtual Experience to be six hours per day in front of a computer!! That is not the BMI Experience you want or deserve! Take a journey along the above navigation bar to learn more. Yes, the University of Santa Barbara campus will be closed throughout the summer, as is your campus, no doubt. We have been proactively preparing for this UCSB decision. Faculty are secured for virtual courses, a variety of connection opportunities among BMIers have been explored, we created special course completion certificates tied to CPEs, and so much more. Won’t you Register Today for this rare professional development opportunity in 2020? Join us for the 2020 BMI Virtual Experience. This is a unique opportunity to use 2020 professional development funds without the cost of travel and accommodations. The Business Management Institute (BMI) at the University of California at Santa Barbara is an immersion program with a four-track curriculum. It is held the first week of August, Sunday through Thursday. (August 3-7, 2020) BMI, WACUBO’s higher education management institute, is designed to deliver the administrative skills and management concepts needed by individuals who are in the business of higher education. The multi-track institute has curriculum applicable across professional career levels within college and university business management. It sells-out annually at 275 registrants. Approximately 30 faculty members from a variety of higher education fields deliver content and learning experiences to attendees. Tracks 1 and 2 are designed for high-potential individuals in the earlier stages of their career. The curriculum includes skills-based courses in accounting, budgeting, and presenting financial information, as well as courses related to working with others, and career strategies. Tracks 3 and 4 are focused on advanced studies for those who are seeking to increase their knowledge of working across the whole university system. The curriculum includes lessons in leadership, case studies, organizational development, building high-performance teams, strategic planning, and career coaching. Intense classroom days give way to cool evenings with fun and relaxing events, including a picnic at the beach to unwind and make more connections with other participants.
Here are a few testimonials about their BMI experience:
