AsianUpward’s TALENT Certificate Program features unique elements that synergistically blend to leverage and develop Executive-level Asian Pacific American (APA) talent. Created and customized with APA strengths and research as the differentiated foundation, TALENT pioneers with AsianUpward’s specialization in APA leadership to craft this cohort program that incorporates senior-executive champions to support meeting APA executives with career and leadership development. Constructed with practical, experiential, and project-based learning, the certificate program culminates into a capstone project and career plan. The innovative modules and practical AsianUpward signature tools stand out from any other program and will make your APA executives stand out. Shine further with continuous growth through AsianUpward’s exceptional executive ecosystem–lifelong learning and leadership.

Promotions to management ranks often require champions and sponsors who are skip-level (two ranks up) from candidates considered for these promotions. The AsianUpward Skip-Level Sessions (SLS) gather APAs and allies at multiple levels to network across departments, functions, and teams to make these skip-level connections. This cross-pollination supports advancement for APAs and allies.
