More than 180 Business Students Receive BB&T Emerging Leaders Certification

The BB&T Leadership Institute recently conducted sessions at College of Business that resulted in 97 College students earning a BB&T Emerging Leaders Certification.  The two Leadership Institute instructors for the event have College connections.  Logann Taylor-Deskins earned her undergraduate business degree in July of 2017.  Jasmine Frinks, pictured left, is currently pursuing her MBA through the College.

In addition to those students earning their certification in the September sessions, 95 students earned their certifications online.  The College of Business is currently the only school certified by BB&T to deliver the program to remotely located students who are earning their degrees through Distance Education classes.

BB&T Leadership Institute instructors will be back on campus November 8 and 9 to conduct the Certification program for more BUSI 4200 students. These sessions will focus on the power of positive leadership.  If faculty would like to learn more about the program, there is limited seating for the sessions.  There are multiple sessions offered each day over the course of two days.
