Financial Education for Securities, Banking, & Insurance Professionals.
Earn Your Master’s Degree
Busy professionals who want to be the best – to continue their education at advanced levels while still serving clients – turn to The American College for an accredited master’s degree that can be earned in as little as a year or 18 months. Because The American College specializes in financial services, our graduate programs offer more value that is practical to advisors than generalist MBA programs. In fact, many of the students in our MSM (Master of Science in Management) leadership program are promoted shortly after completing their degree.
There are two programs for you to consider. The MSM focuses on the latest leadership and management skills. Candidates for the MSM learn how to think more strategically, understand and develop their own leadership skills more effectively, and build their practices and careers with new perspectives.
MSFS, the Master of Science in Financial Services, has been designed specifically for senior-level practitioners. It offers in-depth learning on the latest financial and practice issues advisors are facing today. Contained within the program are a number of certificates you can earn as well, and completing the CAP® (Chartered Advisor in Philanthropy®) will also result in credit toward your MSFS degree.
