Welcome to The Washington Campus
Public Policy Education for Business Leaders
UPDATE: Due to ongoing public health concerns, The Washington Campus' open-enrollment programming for Spring 2021 must be online/remote. Because many schools and students have planned on these courses, we accordingly are running all of them online as previously scheduled. Linked are more details on our online Spring 2021 online MBA course and speciality course focused on health care policy. Please note that all online students will have the opportunity freely to join any portion of a future in-person, in-D.C. program as conditions and schedules allow.
All that we teach to current and future business leaders is more important than ever - i.e., how to strategically, effectively, and ethically manage public affairs and public policy. This includes the ever-more critical need for effective public-private partnerships in order to better prevent, mitigate, and recover from challenges like the crises we are currently in - and those the future may hold. We greatly appreciate the ongoing support and engagement of our partner schools, our fantastic students and alumni, and our incredibly generous faculty speakers. Be well, stay well.
The Washington Campus is a non-profit, non-partisan, higher education consortium. Our mission is to educate both current and future executives about the important interactions of business, government, and public policy, in order to enhance their effectiveness as organizational leaders. With a variety of intensive, experiential programs in Washington D.C., The Washington Campus is a unique organization that plays an essential role in management education.
The Washington Campus programs are intensive educational and professional development courses, ranging from one to five days or more, based in Washington, D.C. Program faculty consist of policy and public affairs experts, political and government leaders, and other key players from business, associations, media, think tanks, and NGOs. Our faculty’s in-depth, first-hand insights help prepare current and future organizational leaders to think and act more strategically regarding government, public affairs, and public policy. Current and future for-profit, non-profit, and public sector executives gain valuable perspectives on how government and public policy affects their organizations and industries, as well as their careers and communities. Participants learn how to craft and implement more successful strategies to manage these forces, including how to ethically and effectively influence the public policy process. All Campus programs incorporate site visits to government offices and agencies, and to other historic and important D.C. locations, so that participants better understand the actual places and players that shape and make policy.
