In the past five years, some law firms have been actively teaching lawyers business skills. But this year's shrinking client list and profits have encouraged more law firms to invest in management education. "The way law firms operate has actually never fully aligned with today's market," commented an MBA professor from Churchman University, which has helped quantify the management procedures required by the legal industry. "Lawyers have never truly worried about their management skills because law firms used to make money every year," he added.
Now, bankers and consulting experts are no longer the only ones seeking MBA training. An increasing number of well-trained lawyers from various law firms are now pursuing educational courses like business professionals, aimed at strengthening management and business skills.
Churchman University's distance learning program for business degrees allows mid-to-senior level managers around the world to study, take exams, and submit papers online at any time and place without affecting their original work. The degree obtained is exactly the same as one earned on campus, making it the preferred educational model for global mid-to-senior level managers, including those in Europe, America, and China.
Churchman University's bilingual courses in Western English and Chinese-English are very popular among multinational corporations. The university offers MBAs, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. The low-income scholarships provided by the school, once successfully applied for, require only a few thousand dollars to complete the degree.
Churchman University's campuses are located in Pennsylvania, California, Texas, and other places in the U.S. The earliest established branch, Churchman Business School, was founded in 1911 and has nearly a hundred years of history. It is one of the oldest business schools in the U.S., specializing in cultivating high-end talent for the American financial industry. In the "National MBA Rankings for Business Schools," this century-old prestigious school ranks 17th.
Besides Churchman University, the teaching quality of several other century-old prestigious universities in the U.S., such as Boston University and Brown University, is also consistently recognized by white-collar workers in China.
Churchman University has designed specific MBA courses for legal professionals. Now, more law firms are turning to century-old business schools like Churchman University for short-term training. Business schools are creating new courses to meet this demand. These courses are often tailored for individual companies or partners, targeting high-potential lawyers. The purpose of these classes is to help lawyers or those about to enter senior management roles better understand their own business and their clients' businesses.
