Our programs are designed taking into consideration the educational needs of working professionals. With expert instructors and using real case studies, we couple academic theory and business knowledge with practical, real-world application. This way we bring the Chicago Booth Approach to online learning to life.
Our programs are designed in a way so that they can adapt to your personal schedule. However, it is important to note that our programs have a fixed end date and that each module has assignments and forums that must be submitted within a specific timeframe. You will have assistance throughout the program in case you are unable to complete an assignment as a result of scheduling conflicts. If you are unable to complete an assignment as a result of scheduling conflicts, your mentor will be available to assist you. If you are unable able to attend live sessions, recordings will be uploaded to the virtual campus 24 hours after the session. Participants will be able to access the platform and materials for 30 days after the program ends.
Our live sessions are the perfect opportunity to connect with others, to share knowledge, and to participate in meaningful debate. During these sessions, you will be able to access additional content, learn from real-life case studies, and ask questions about projects and assignments.
A key part of online learning, live webinars, will be conducted by mentors and/or instructors. While these sessions are not compulsory to attend, they are highly recommended. Nevertheless, all webinars will be recorded and will be uploaded to the virtual campus 24 hours after the session. Where required, close captions and translated subtitles will be available a few days after the session.
For the full duration of the program or course, you will be assigned a mentor who will guide you throughout your learning journey, and who will be able to answer any questions you may have. You will be allowed to ask questions during live sessions with your mentor and instructors, and you will be able to consult with your mentor and your peers during live forums. Furthermore, our academic support team will be available to respond to any queries and to provide additional guidance and support.
Programs and courses are designed to provide you with an interactive and varied learning experience. As such, you will have access to the following:
1.Content to read and videos to watch with additional examples.
2.Assignments and exercises to practice what you have been taught.
3.Discussion forums to interact and learn from others.
4.Live sessions to connect with your mentor and peers and to discuss any doubts you may have.
Mentors are experts in their fields. Your mentor will be there to help and guide you throughout the duration of the program. Furthermore, your mentor will grade your assignments, monitor your participation in forums and sessions, and will provide you with feedback. If you have any questions or are unsure of anything, your mentor will be there to assist you and, if necessary, will provide you with extra live sessions.
Professional education is a lot about learning from others and gaining new perspectives. Each participant makes the program richer in terms of sharing knowledge and expertise. The Chicago Booth Approach to online learning offers many opportunities to connect with other participants as we believe that peer learning substantially increases the overall learning experience.
We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity by connecting and communicating with other participants through the learning platform. You will be able to form interest groups or location-specific groups and interact within those groups. You can also send direct messages to other participants and consult their profiles (LinkedIn or any other pages included), via the learning platform.
Once you have completed the program or course you will receive a digital Certificate of Completion. You will also receive a digital badge credential that may be shared on your social networks. Finally, you will be granted access to our private Executive Education LinkedIn group.
