Integrating in house development programs within a formal award framework.
The Business School corporate/in-company programs are co-operative ventures between The Business School and partner organisations, providing management development programs within the framework of and organisation's staff development requirements and university accredited management qualifications.
In doing so, the programs strengthen in-house management programs by providing a rigorous educational and conceptual framework, linked to contemporary insights and developments in business practice internationally. They reinforce the motivation of individuals and their commitment to a serious engagement in their professional and personal development, not just through the quality of the programs but equally because of their recognition towards formal University level qualifications.
Our corporate/in-house programs are generally delivered through modular units which lead to initial qualifications in management, such as a Graduate Certificate of Management or Graduate Diploma of Management, right through to a Master of Business Administrative (MBA).
We use a wide range of participative and learner centred methods - including 'action' and programmed learning, case studies and in-company projects - in order to give a relevance and immediate impact on the capabilities of our students in the workplace and within a particular organisation.
Furthermore, our specialist capabilities in management education mean that our partnerships are an extremely cost effective option for our partners, enabling them to avoid many of the costs entailed in maintaining a capacity to deliver these sorts of programs in-house.
Flexibility
We are flexible. Courses are run at times and places convenient to our partner organisations. We are not limited by traditional University semesters, nor to attendance at The Business School.
At present, we work on University premises, at in-house training centres, and at hotels on week-days, weekends and evenings throughout the year, according to clients'
needs.
