Serving Long Island, New York City, Westchester, Hudson Valley, the Capital District, the Adirondacks as well as Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Vermont. FORUM was designed for managers to earn a degree they need while working. Students work one on one with a faculty mentor who advises and guides them through the degree process.

Most study is independent, but unlike online and pure independent study options, you will attend a residency three times per semester. Residencies are designed for students to exchange ideas face to face with fellow students and professors, and become part of a community of high-level learners.

One benefit of the FORUM Management Program is that, of the 128 credits required by Empire State College for the bachelor’s degree, you may receive up to 96 credits for life experience. Students get credit for training they have received over the years, languages they may speak, associate's degrees, work experience, military service, and a range of other experience.
