And, AACC Management Sciences Division members who attended previous such Bayer Executive Management courses had these comments:

"The Bayer Executive Management Program at Notre Dame was extremely helpful in identifying opportunities for improvement in critical laboratory management areas. Most useful were the discussions provided by the Notre Dame staff in response to questions as well as the opportunity to compare notes on laboratory issues with fellow attendees which was extremely insightful. In addition, the program provided a very positive learning environment for the discussion of important, current laboratory related management issues."
Leroy Mell, Ph.D., MBA, Laboratory Director, Anne Arundel Medical Center, Annapolis, Maryland

“The Executive Management Program is designed by the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business for Bayer Diagnostics and is targeted towards Laboratory professionals. The courses are interactive, and the discussions between the Notre Dame professors and Laboratorians are challenging and thought provoking. This program is excellent for Clinical Chemists and Laboratory Managers who have no formal business education.”
Susan Gross, MT (ASCP), MS, Senior Supervisor, Chemistry, San Francisco General Hospital / UCSF

“As an individual that has been trained from a clinical and technical perspective, I had little exposure to formal management training. The Bayer Executive Training Program at Notre Dame University provided me with that experience in a brief, but concentrated review of management strategies successfully used both inside and outside of medicine today. Discussions were thought provoking and the instructors were knowledgeable and approachable. I feel that this program assists in the very real and immediate need to train the next generation of laboratory leadership.”
Stephen Manzella, Ph.D., Director of Clinical Chemistry, York Hospital, York , PA
