The Hudson Institute continues Nova Southeastern University's rich tradition of providing practical business education to organizations and individuals. Established in March 2000, the Institute responds to the vital need of businesses to tap into the expertise and up-to-date training available through the Huizenga School of Business. Through the Institute, we offer non-credit courses that give companies, managers and employees that critical cutting edge needed to excel in the intensely competitive environment in both the corporate and governmental sectors. The Institute proudly carries the name of Harris W. Hudson, a respected and accomplished Florida business executive for the past 50 years. Hudson currently serves on several area boards and continues to make significant contributions to the growth of our community.
