by Cheryl Fleisher
Baruch College’s Continuing and Professional Studies (CAPS) Division offers courses and seminars covering subjects from Accounting to Zumba and describes itself as “The College of Possibilities.” For Executives On Campus members, participating in CAPS courses and one-day business seminars makes it possible to enhance or update management techniques or communication skills, improve a golf game, relax in a pool or on a yoga mat, or indulge lifelong interests that diverge from day-to-day concerns.

All EOC members receive a 15% discount on most CAPS courses. Furthermore, working with the CAPS Corporate Learning Services team, EOC members can build customized business training programs and workshops for their companies or extend a 10% discount on specific CAPS courses conducted at Baruch to their employees.

CAPS designed its wide-ranging roster of Friday intensive seminars to meet the varied needs of time-pressed executives, inquisitive job changers and seasoned employees confronting knowledge gaps as technology advances or new responsibilities alter their job descriptions. All CAPS programs are led by working professionals, insuring that recognized best practices and relevant business cases form the basis for classroom interaction. In addition to the seminars listed on the CAPS website, dynamic corporate management classes focused on negotiating and managing conflict, creating effective teams and partnerships, developing and providing leadership, assessing interpersonal management styles, strategic planning, evaluating performance and setting objectives have been conducted for executive groups and are available on demand.
