    From our Alumni

    The Leaders Beyond programs have provided tremendous learning and insights for this group to enable that jump. Their unique blend of practical mentor-led education and their focus on the skills and knowledge needed to make immediate impact on business results have produced significant positive changes in the way my team operates.

    EVP Technology and Operations, eHealth Ontario

    I can’t recommend it highly enough. The program goes a long way in helping to transform high-potential techies into trusted advisors and business leaders. Having business-savvy IT staff is a critical success factor.

    CIO, Ministry of Finance, Province of British Columbia

    I recommend it to anyone who is relatively new to their CIO role or as a refresher for those who have been a CIO for a while. The program blends the right amount of theory with very practical tools and best practices. The instructors are top-notch and are all knowledgeable practitioners. I wish I had taken this program 5 years ago when I started my current CIO job.

    Chief Information Officer, Assistant Deputy Minister – Information and Communications Technology, Government of Yukon

    Anyone who wishes to become a CIO should take this course. The added bonus is the business relationships that are developed with fellow classmates who all bring their own experience to the course. As a CIO, I found I benefitted from this course and highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to combine IT and business into a successful career path.

    CIO, AGS Group

    The IT Executive Leader Program is life-changing and thought-provoking which goes well beyond sharing mere academic and professional knowledge to allow heart-to-heart learning through a non-nonsensical approach of the real difficulties of the CIO’s trade. It would have taken the best of us many years and good luck to achieve the same results.

    Education Officer, Government of Ontario

    This business-driven program provided outstanding content, practical tools for both IT and non-IT executives, as well as an instant network of IT executives with which to exchange challenges, solutions, and best practices. I would strongly encourage both aspiring IT executives and business leaders with a need to understand and create shared impact and value with their peers to learn from this highly effective program.

    Chief Operating Officer (Retired) LoyaltyOne Inc.

    The IT Leader Program addresses one of the biggest hurdles most new managers face. We often hear sound business philosophies from an academic/theoretical perspective but lack the tools to implement them successfully. This course has filled in those gaps and helped me identify some key concepts, which will help me succeed in my role and will be instrumental in moving my career forward.

    City of Toronto

    I really enjoyed the Emerging IT Leader Program because of all the great course content and the great faculty in this program. What I liked most were the real-world experiences that the faculty shared with us. All these great people showed me what a true IT leader should be and how they react to real-world problems.
