Student Testimonial_300x300px_Emma Hearn

 

"There have been so many benefits in my work life already. It gives you a broader perspective on situations you're dealing with. I have such an appreciation for the challenges of those who live with a disability after the IP, and am looking at ways now where we, as a business, can support a more diverse workforce. The reading lists for both courses so far have been so enlightening - I've gained such a lot of knowledge. "

"As a consultant, this MBA was a real differentiator for me as it shows that my experience is backed up academically. My favourite part about the Ducere MBA was the industry projects where I got the chance to apply my learnings in a real environment with actual clients. The projects provided exposure to different leadership approaches and provided an opportunity to make real impact."

There are no application fees.

There are no hidden fees. No textbooks are required to be purchased, no facilities fees, sporting fees, amenities or any other fees that don’t apply directly to your online education.

Each degree is different. Some programs can take under 12 months and some up to 3 years. See descriptions under Courses for full details.

This varies depending on the program and its duration. You could expect between 7-15 hours dependent on the program. However, as assessments are all applied and we have no exams, much of the work for your degree is tied directly to solving organisational challenges rather than a commitment on top of your career. Your Enrolment Advisor can provide more details of time estimates based on your preferred program.

All degrees are 100% online. There are many opportunities for you to engage with your academics, peers, and student support services. However, there are no mandatory scheduled classes, meaning you can study wherever you are, whenever you want.

All academics must be suitably qualified in order to teach our programs. However, Ducere academics, or as we call them, Pracademics, go much further. They run their own businesses, consult to industry and bring as much “real world” knowledge as academic knowledge. Your academics will be from all over the world including the UK, US, Africa, Australia, and Europe.

Yes, you can request a leave from most programs. Most degrees allow for both Full-Time and Part-Time study plans.

For a summary of each program, visit the Courses section of the website. For a complete Course and Subject guide, this can be requested from your Enrolment Advisor.

As a truly global business school operating with offices and staff all over the world, you will join a dynamic group of change makers from Rwanda to Singapore and most places in between.

Yes. But this is subject to the actual subjects and credit hours undertook. As part of your enrolment process, your Enrolment Advisor will obtain details of your past studies to determine possible credit.

Traditional universities rely heavily on examinations, even though universities own research shows that exams are amongst the least effective method for teaching and retaining knowledge. According to Harvard Professor, Derek Bok “Although 99 percent of professors consider critical thinking an “essential” or “very  important” goal of a college education, fewer than 20 percent of the exam questions actually tested for this skill”.

Instead, your degree will have no exams, but formal project based assessments that are tailored and integrated into each student’s job, career and personal passions. Assessment is articulated through solution finding, improvisation, interrogation, interaction, integration and imagination all of which shape change. These assessments are then graded by qualified academics from around the world. The result is a better learning outcome, while students are less anxious.
