Transforming Online Learning Experiences through Innovative Course Design
Committed to delivering impact and outcomes, we make effective use of the online course medium in all its formats to keep audiences engaged.
We have worked closely with Urban MBA founder Kofi Oppong and the team to create an online course programme with the potential to impact youth globally while engaging audiences of all ages.
In the UK alone close to 700,000 young people, which is about 10% of the population between the age of 16 to 24, are currently not in education, employment or training (NEET). The vision of Urban MBA is to create a world where no young person is lost or left aside. It is no surprise that the current educational environment leaves many young people disengaged.
As we navigate the challenge of transferring a proven classroom experience into an online course, the goal was to go beyond simply moving the classroom experience online and instead create an engaging 360 online learning programme for Urban MBA.
Urban MBA’s unique learning style built around the awareness of an 8-second filter has kickstarted the careers of an exemplary group of entrepreneurs and young adults in employment.
Online courses rely on a clear tone of voice and need to speak the students’ language.
For UrbanMBA we modeled the course on the personality of the instructor and on an already established and successful curriculum.
We nurture accountability and continually aim at high completion rates.
