English Language Requirement
Columbia Business School Executive Education programs provide a rewarding experience, including rich interaction with faculty and fellow participants. Therefore, proficiency in written and spoken English is essential.
If English is your second language, or if you have less than one year of experience in an English-speaking work environment, Columbia Business School Executive Education requests documentation of proficiency in conversational and written English.
Acceptable documentation could include:
- • Degrees earned at English-speaking colleges and universities
- • A list of English-language certification programs completed
- • Results of tests such as the TOEIC® – Test of English for International CommunicationTM exam.
Our Learning Solutions Specialists also may request a telephone interview.
