Lifelong Learning
The School of Business is dedicated to providing lifelong learning opportunities for our alumni throughout their life and career journey. Our topics often expand across industries, career paths, identities, and personal growth goals. If there is a topic that you would like to learn more about or if you would like to facilitate a webinar or lifelong learning opportunity for alumni, contact us as sbalumni@wfu.edu.
Elective courses (for credit or audit)
The Lifelong Learning Program is offered only to alumni of the WFU School of Business graduate programs. Enrollment is specific to the degree program from which the alumnus graduated as well as a limited set of courses from other WFU School of Business graduate programs as approved by the appropriate Associate Deans. Alumni may enroll on a space-available basis and with permission of the relevant associate dean and course instructor. The applicable fees are $500 (if auditing), and $1000 (if taking the course for credit). Payment will be requested at the time of registration. For a list of current electives offered or to express interest in taking an elective course for credit or audit, contact the Graduate Student Academic Services office at SBGSAS@wfu.edu or 336-758-3746.
