Leadership University
UNM Continuing Education’s Customized Training Program is pleased to offer a Leadership University that meets the unique needs of your business or organization.
Working with our expert UNM CE Custom Training Program staff, we can co-create a Leadership University program for Executives, Managers, Supervisors, or Team Leaders. We will collaborate to select appropriate workshop topics for your employees.
Teaching Methods
Our training is relevant and based upon the experiences of the participants and the instructor/facilitator, rather than on generic examples. Individual consultation with participants can be built into this program to facilitate transfer of the information from the workshop to the workplace. Also, peer support groups can be built into the program to reinforce program concepts.

What people are saying about UNM Continuing Education’s Customized Leadership University Program:
Our managers and supervisors have been attending UNM Continuing Education’s Leadership program since April 2009. UNMCE allowed us to customize the training to fit our needs. The leadership program has been filled with a lot of great training materials and information that can be used in our everyday environment. Our leaders at Sara Lee have improved upon their skills and continue to use what they have learned from the leadership classes daily.
The staff at UNMCE has provided great service for us and is a pleasure to work with. Thank you.

I am writing on behalf of the Custom Training Program at the University of New Mexico’s Division of Continuing Education (UNMCE). The Custom Training Program responded to our request for a Civilian Leadership Program here at Kirtland AFB. Initially, we met to ensure that the content and process would work for our civilian population. UNMCE was able to quickly incorporate our needs and constraints into a program taught by highly experienced instructors, all of whom currently work in their fields of expertise. The program provides a series of modules - one per month for eight months. Although the modules are discrete, there is a unique process ties them all together so that learnings from each module are revisited in other modules. This ensures that the flow of the information is consistent throughout the program. Student evaluations are consistently in the 90% range and indicate the timeliness of content, professionalism of instructors, and the relevance of topic - and all this in a comfortable, inclusive atmosphere that encourages a high degree of participation. We are delighted with the Civilian Leadership Program and grateful to UNM CE for providing it.
