Management training programs

HEC Montréal’s management training programs are generally made up of between five and ten seminars developed to give participants an overview of a given topic.

Seminars are generally two or three days long and are given by an HEC Montréal professor. Programs can  either be intensive featuring a series of tightly scheduled seminars, or spread out over a longer period such as a month. Seminars can be held abroad or at HEC Montréal.

At HEC Montréal, seminars can be structured as steady trips including conferences and site visits.
