Alumni Status
PLD participants earn HBS alumni status by completing an additional 10 days (two credit weeks) of HBS Executive Education Open-Enrollment (OE) or custom programs. Participants have five years from the completion of either PLD or the first qualifying program to fulfill these requirements. Qualifying programs include those completed within two years prior to the PLD start date. Participants must apply for each OE program and must meet admission requirements.
