Short courses for industry
Our short courses on entrepreneurship and innovation are normally arranged on a customized basis, to suit a particular organization.
Intensive courses
Most of our courses are run in "intensive mode". Instead of spending a few hours a week for a whole semester, with our cases the lectures are held on a full-time basis over several days. In our experience, these intensive courses are not only more convenient for most students, but offer a much better learning experience. Questions and answers on intensive courses.
