Ashland University's MBA Program has developed a series of seminars to serve the educational needs of business leaders and graduate students. The purpose of the seminars is to provide students the opportunity to broaden their knowledge of current issues in business. These courses are typically offered as Friday/Saturday classes, meeting from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday. A continental breakfast is provided both days, and lunch is served on Friday by Ashland University's award-winning catering service. Hotel listings are available if overnight accommodations are desired.

These 12-hour seminars may be taken for 1 hour of elective credit in Ashland University's MBA Program. Students taking the seminar for credit are required to complete a graded assignment related to the course material covered. Students may apply credit from a maximum of three seminars as a substitution for one MBA course. Interested students should contact the MBA Office to determine which MBA course may be substituted. The prerequisites required for a specific seminar depend upon the detail and rigor of the topic. If no prerequisite is listed in the seminar description, the course does not require a prerequisite for students taking the class for credit. Seminars are available to be taken for non-credit even if a prerequisite is not met.  Upon request, Continuing Education Units are awarded to participants for attending a seminar.  For more information, please contact the MBA Office at 1-888-MBA-CLAS.
