Graduate Students Complete the O'Pake Institute's Executives-in-Training Program

Alvernia University's O'Pake Institute for Economic Development and Entrepreneurship launched the Executives-In-Training Program featuring training from local experts, career development opportunities and networking. The first cohort of Alvernia graduate students in the O'Pake Fellows Program received their certificates at a graduation ceremony on May 1.

"The Executives-In-Training Program at the O'Pake Institute has provided me with experiential learning that complements my MBA course schedule and kept me on my toes every step of the way," said Nick Nutile, MBA '23. From experienced professionals who came in to talk to us, to the self-assessments and activities that we completed, it has truly been a pivotal factor in increasing my knowledge and preparedness to enter the workforce. I couldn't be more thankful for Michelle Conway for her expertise and mentorship through this program. The insights I've gained from this course have been priceless and it was a fantastic experience overall."
