Management Leadership Certificate ProgramFrequently Asked Questions

At the conclusion of this program, if you meet all program requirements, you will receive a Certificate in Management Leadership from FIU Executive Education at the College of Business.

FIU Executive Education participants are not official FIU students in the sense that they are not issued a “Panther ID” number or Student ID. FIU Executive Education programs do not award college credits and may not be taken as part of an FIU academic program. A program taken through our office will not appear on MyFIU and will not appear on your transcript. In addition, you will not need to apply for admission to the university as a student.

Attendance, whether in person or remotely, is a major component of this program and a requirement for earning the certificate. Should a participant not be able to attend due to an emergency situation, he or she can discuss the situation with the program coordinator to determine a path toward earning the certificate.

International attendees are welcome to enhance their professional development by participating in FIU Executive Education programs. Program modalities are conveniently set to fit the schedules of busy professionals. Programs are typically delivered either live/virtual (cohort) synchronous or fully online (self-paced) asynchronous. We may also offer in-person programs. Please refer to each program’s Delivery Method listed on the program’s home page.

Student Visas: Continuing professional education programs are non-credit and non-degree programs; therefore, they do not qualify for US student visas. To attend in-person programs, international participants usually need tourist visa. When necessary, our office may present an official letter from FIU to confirmed participants which that may be used in support for obtaining a tourist visa.

Should you have additional questions or concerns, please email us at execed@fiu.edu.
