The program focuses on developing solid leadership, communication and project management skills. The program provides a strong technical foundation, breadth and depth across technologies, and business functional knowledge.

In addition, IMLP's receive formal coursework in advanced information technology and systems during two four-week GE boot camps along with many other educational workshops. IMLP's are considered to be high talent, internal consultants that tackle complex issues within a short time frame. On occasion members of the internal consulting team graduate the two year program with a green or black belt in Lean Six Sigma Business Excellence methodologies.
