The activities of the Center constitute a valuable resource base for creating and offering Executive Development & Training programs. These programs give higher level decision makers the information about how to recognize and take advantage of situations where optimization can yield important benefits for their companies.

Instruction is provided by Center staff and prominent visiting researchers and scholars who are leaders in the field of optimization and its applications. The programs will also offer practical hands-on demonstrations to provide knowledge and understanding of useful software resources. Presenters are also drawn from the Research Support firms, whose “presentation packages” will be further tailored to provide informative demonstrations.
