Dr. Peter Bishop and Dr. Andy Hines just completed the 11th version of their Certificate in Strategic Foresight at the University Hilton last week. The Certificate program is a five-day summary of the Master of Science degree in Foresight that moved to the College of Technology from the University of Houston-Clear Lake in 2005. Founded in 2009, the Certificate program has introduced over 350 working professionals to the theories, methods and tools taught in the Foresight program at the University of Houston.
Participants in this month’s sessions came from all over the United States and from Canada, Mexico, Pakistan and Singapore. Dr. Bishop and Dr. Hines will travel to Brussels next month to offer the third course there sponsored by the Destree Institute in Namur, Belgium. Dr. Bishop has also offered versions of this course outside the U.S. in Curitiba, Brazil and Ottawa, Canada and inside the U.S. in Michigan and Virginia. The ultimate objective is to equip professionals who have foresight responsibilities with the tools and techniques that graduates from the Master’s program learn in pursuit of better futures for their employers and clients.
