Maximizing your Resources
EMBA programs are challenged to maximize learning outcomes while minimizing students’ time away from the workplace. Cornell University, through its subsidiary eCornell, has developed a series of financial management courses to assist EMBA programs in meeting this challenge.
Accelerating an MBA program requires that difficult decisions be made about which courses remain in the curriculum and which courses are cut. With Cornell’s Business Fundamentals for EMBAs, you can give your students a head start and have the best of both worlds by allowing your EMBA faculty to concentrate their efforts on higher-level financial concepts rather than spending time on the basics. The courses tailor the learning pace to each student. No longer are instructors forced to move through the material too fast for some students while too slow for others.
By completing our four-course series of online financial management courses, your students will arrive on campus with a common base of financial knowledge - prepared and ready to apply this knowledge to higher level financial concepts. Currently, this online sequence is being successfully implemented as a required prerequisite in a Cornell masters in management program.
Four-course Sequence:
Each course requires between six to eight hours of online learning time over a period of two weeks. The four-course financial management sequence can be completed in as little as eight weeks.
Cornell University is a trusted institution known for its quality offerings. By taking advantage of our proven courses, your program, and your students, will save time and money without jeopardizing quality.
