Students prepare the sessions and they pitch their preparations right at the start of the day. Then group discussions take place, interactive workshops, exercises (group wise and individually). Specialists give guest lectures about e.g. Managing costs, quality, relations and client satisfaction, trends and developments, knowing the real demand (instead of the pitfall thinking you know them) The atmosphere in class is quite loose; different thoughts are being encouraged. Active participation of all attendees is the recipe to create an effective learning environment.
Preparation of the sessions, attending the sessions, processing the discussed information and the assignments (1 paper to write and 1 oral exam) will take between150 -200 hours.
