Through the ICAP Program, working professionals from different countries enhance their skills in international management, international relations, and comparative public policy. Unlike most professional training programs at American institutions, the ICAP Program is designed specifically for managers in companies and governments outside the United States. Recent ICAP associates and alumni include professionals from Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Spain, China, and Costa Rica. The program is individually tailored to meet the needs of the student and his or her sponsoring institution.
Classes are small and schedules are flexible.
Perhaps most important, ICAP students, known as associates, are afforded the time and opportunity to interact with fellow students and peers, as well as leaders in business and government from the United States and other Pacific Rim countries. Associates are awarded a Certificate of Study upon completion of the program. ICAP also offers special courses in U.S. government and politics and intensive, hands-on tutorials for improving English language skills. Such direct contacts provide unique opportunities to experience business and government in action and to directly interact with corporate and public policy leaders in the United States and Mexico. This intensive program in the English language helps familiarize participants with the academic, cultural, and living environment.
