Kenan-Flagler Connection

Because the health care system is undergoing significant change impacting physicians and how they provide care, The Carolinas Center for Medical Excellence identified the need to create an advanced leadership training program specifically for physicians.

To best develop and deliver this program, we formed an important alliance with one of the premier business schools in the nation: the University of North Carolina's Kenan-Flagler Business School.

The Kenan-Flagler Business School, delivering executive education programs for over fifty years, is one of the oldest providers of high-quality executive education in the country.
