Fogelman Promise Initiatives
Professionalism First! is one of several initiatives to help you become a competitive candidate in today’s job market.   Our full program includes seven initiatives.  If you successfully complete six of those seven modules, you will receive a Certificate of Professional Development.  Employers value this certificate and know that you have invested in learning about the important skills that will help you succeed in today’s business world.
 
The Fogelman Promise Initiatives include:
  • Professionalism First!

  • Know Good—Do Good—Thrive (offered during regular classes)
  • The 4 C’s—Communication, Creativity, Critical Thinking, and Emotional Control (offered during regular classes)
All FCBE students receive the last two initiatives as part of our regular curriculum.  To receive the Professional Development Certificate, you only have to complete 4 of the remaining initiatives—a great investment into your future.
