This is not a typical online course where you just watch video lectures and comment online. This is a high-intensity interactive experience.
The practical nature and the highly-personalized elements of the program mean that you join live classes, receive personalized coaching sessions, and practice your learning in a tailored way.
Through this innovative program, you will gain both systemic and granular understanding of the social impact sector, as well as build cutting-edge 21st-century skills with the
help of global practitioners who are masters in the fields of Leadership, Entrepreneurship & Management, Communication, and Innovation.
You will become part of an engaging global community of impact professionals while experiencing a collaborative methodology and using online tools that are going to be more and more relevant in the future of work.
