About

Whether you are looking to hone existing skills, learn new ones, or reinvent your career—we are here to serve you. Through the Harvard Professional Development Programs, offered by the Division of Continuing Education, you have the opportunity to develop core business competencies—and become the leader you’ve always wanted to be.

Designed to accommodate a busy professional’s schedule, our intensive programs meet on Harvard’s campus for one to five days. Every topic covered—including business strategy, leadership and management, negotiation, and more—is suitable for professionals in a variety of industries and markets. 

Upon completion of a program, you will return to the office with the training and strategies to be more successful in your role.

Academic Experience

Harvard is set in the heart of a leading center of technology and innovation: Cambridge, Massachusetts. You’ll be learning at one of the world’s finest academic institutions. There is no better place to invest in developing yourself.

Our programs are led by experts from a variety of arenas in the Boston and Harvard communities. You’ll engage with them in interactive classroom discussions and workshops.

You’ll also collaborate with a diverse set of peers to enrich your learning and your professional network. With participants coming from over 85 different countries and a variety of industries, you’ll encounter varied perspectives that can help you see your work in new ways.

We invite you to step outside of your everyday routine and challenge yourself. Here, you can reflect on your management or leadership style, and consider ways you can improve. You can learn how to reframe challenges and see them through a new lens.

Join us at Harvard, and build knowledge and tools to help you—and your organization—succeed.
