For Immediate Release
KMKC and The University of Notre Dame Executive MBA Program Form Partnership
Cincinnati, April 10, 2001- KMK Consulting Company is proud to announce that it has been selected as a distance learning host site for The University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza School of Business Executive MBA Program. Notre Dame and the Ohio Board of Regents recently approved the partnership which will begin holding classes in Cincinnati this Fall.
KMK Consulting becomes only the fourth host site and the first consulting company host for the prestigious distance learning program. In Notre Dame’s continued efforts to expand and offer the program to more emerging leaders in the business community, the Cincinnati site will also be the furthest host-site from the South Bend campus.
The two-year program offers the Executive MBA degree to distance sites via two-way audio and videoconferencing. Students at the existing remote sites have responded very positively since they are able to obtain the Notre Dame Executive MBA degree without having to spend extra time and money traveling to and from the South Bend campus. The Cincinnati students will attend class in South Bend during the first week of each semester to acquaint themselves with their professors, their peers and with the beautiful campus. Cincinnati classes will be held at KMK Consulting Company’s offices in downtown Cincinnati Fridays and Saturdays on alternating weekends for four semesters.
In recognition of the EMBA program, The University has been voted: "Best Distance Learning Program in Higher Education", by the United States Distance Learning Association.
Jim McGraw, Managing Director of KMK Consulting, said "We are very excited about the opportunity to collaborate with Notre Dame. It is truly an honor for us to work with the University and be able to offer this program to Cincinnati entrepreneurs and corporate executives. As an alumnus, I appreciate the amount of pride associated with receiving a degree from Notre Dame. Our company looks forward to expanding the opportunity for strong business leaders to enhance their careers thru the Notre Dame experience."
