The certificate course is meant for those who are on the verge of leaving the services and want to make new beginnings.
The program aims to acquaint officers with today's business environment and enhance their leadership skills.

FORE School of Management has done everything possible to ensure that the program is in keeping with today's business trends, and its mission is to help defence personnel with their second careers. The pedagogy of the program involves lectures, case studies, exercises, simulation and games, projects and assignments. Industry visits and interactions with guest speakers might be organized by the institute to offer much required exposure for the defence personnel.
Prof. Asif Zameer, Chairperson, Management Development Programme (MDP, FORE School of Management, New Delhi) is excited about working with the officers, who valiantly serve their country and its people. It's an opportunity to give something back to them and he is mindful of the responsibility involved too, as he says, "We have created this program with great care and to offer the best learning opportunities to these heroes. By the end of the program, we are confident that they will be able to make a place for themselves in whatever field they choose." And that would truly be "mission accomplished."
