Teaching Style
Our teaching style puts the application of rigorous academic standards to industry practice to the forefront of the program. We strive to make learning concrete, so that it can be directly applied in the respective participant contexts. Sessions are taught by internationally experienced subject matter experts who use a wide range of didactic settings and methods to ensure practical reflection and hands-on application of all the program contents to the participant's business context. We invest in an academically rigorous, practically applied, interactive format of teaching and learning.
