Open-Book Assessments That Mirror Real-World Decision-Making

Instead of classical question/answer exams, you will encounter open-book assessments that reward critical thinking, research literacy, and applied problem-solving. The focus is not on memorisation but on how effectively you frame issues, marshal evidence, and craft convincing, data-driven recommendations.

This approach mirrors senior leadership challenges, where resources are available but judgment makes the difference. You will build a robust toolkit for synthesising information, making defensible decisions, and communicating insights with clarity and impact.

Guided by Faculty from World-Renowned Universities

Learn from tutors and faculty who have graduated from globally respected institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel, and Washington University in St. Louis. Their academic pedigree and industry experience enrich your learning with diverse perspectives, rigorous standards, and constructive mentorship.

Beyond imparting knowledge, your faculty help you think like an executive researcher—framing questions that matter, designing robust methodologies, and translating findings into action. Their guidance elevates your work and accelerates your growth as a reflective, impactful leader.

A Global Community from 130+ Countries

Join a diverse network of peers who bring insights from across industries and continents. Our alumni work for international organisations like United Nations, Google, ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens, Sony.

This community becomes your learning laboratory, sounding board, and professional network. You will exchange ideas, collaborate across time zones, and build relationships that can lead to international partnerships, career opportunities, and lifelong friendships.
