Advanced Certificate Program with Services (ACPS) in partnership with IBM Second edition of the "Advanced Certificate Program with Services"(ACPS) in partnership with IBM commencing in first quarter of 2011. The first edition of the program was highly successful and well received by industry and academia alike. ACPS batch 01 has been a big success, especially in the context of the fact that it was the first of its kind in South Asia. The industry in general has appreciated the program architecture, design and execution. In fact, the program design and content are being emulated by organizations in other countries. As we know services management, operations, quality, human resource management are materially different and the practitioners need to be trained in a specialized manner designed for service professionals.

The program duration - 4 months (3 days of last week end of each month) HDFC bank has offered education loan facility for this program. 50% discount will be given in the program fees for SPJIMR alumni.
