Program Overview: 

The mission of The Management Institute is to provide the Roanoke Valley Business Community with a viable management education program that is timely, competitive, informative, and thereby assists in the continued educational development of middle and upper-level managers. The Management Institute was developed by Roanoke College to meet the management training needs specific to the Roanoke Valley as identified by local business leaders. The Institute believes that continuous learning in today's changing environment is a critical necessity.

The 2024 Management Program is sponsored by The Management Institute, which is a part of the Business and Economics Department of Roanoke College. The program has been in operation for over 30 years. The content of the program is continuously reviewed to determine the topics deemed most important for upper level managers.
