Continuing Education

Students who wish to pursue continuing education may find it useful to consider the options available at Capella, an online university that offers 82 graduate and undergraduate specializations and 16 certificate programs.

Capella University presently serves over 17,900 students throughout the United States and in 56 foreign countries. Capella is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.

Students at Capella University can profit from the instruction of Sara Orem, Ph.D., who has co-authored a book published by Jossey-Bass and titled Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process for Change. Orem is a faculty member and coach at Capella University’s School of Business and Technology.

Appreciative Coaching takes the position that groups and individuals succeed when they concentrate on ideals, achievements, and best practices. The book suggests that one can reach success by following a path though four stages--Discovery, Dream, Design, and Destiny.

The book meets the needs of those who serve as coaches for managers, executives, and others who work with people who can bring about change in their groups or organizations.
