The ability for you to interact with expert instructors, to ask questions and receive answers, and to learn with—and from—other participants keeps the learning interesting, practical, and above all, relevant to your work. And there’s one more key component: the practice opportunities. Most courses include a project, which challenges you to apply the course concepts to your own organization. Others include interactive scenarios, simulations, and other engaging practice activities. All courses include tools, techniques, or job aids that you can put to immediate use in your work.

We develop every certificate program and course with very tangible outcomes in mind. To us, it’s not enough if a course helps you to know something, or even to understand it. We design our programs to go much further, to equip you to do something—better or for the first time—at your job. We ask, “After completing this course, what will participants be able to analyze, identify, assess, implement, calculate, or influence that they couldn’t before?”  Courses draw on a variety of components to provide this practical and theoretical learning approach:

·       Discussions

·       Projects

·       Practice activities

·       Short videos

·       Interviews with industry experts

·       Online tools and downloadable resources

·       Case studies and examples

·       The guidance of an instructor

Our approach positions you as an active participant in the learning process, allowing you to build the necessary problem-solving skills at your own pace and in your own style to confront the real challenges you face on the job and in life.
