Promoting
Promoting a culture of entrepreneurialism and support for research and program development
Entrepreneurs are able to see market opportunities and seize them. Moreover, they are willing to accept a high level of personal, professional and financial risk to pursue these opportunities. Our School strives to encourage such entrepreneurs in the areas of research and program development by creating a culture of entrepreneurialism.
Examples
The Master of Science in Learning and Organizational Change program is expanding by offering an innovative new path toward its certificate in strategic change management. Beginning in 2009, students are pursuing the full master's degree or graduate certificates via a model that combines distance learning with periodic on-campus sessions.
The Center for Talent Development (CTD) strategically offers programs in sites around the Chicago area, expanding its reach to new communities. In addition to the Northwestern Evanston campus programs, CTD has a Saturday Enrichment Program site in Naperville, a new site in Palatine and explorations underway for sites to launch in the Chicago south suburbs and Milwaukee.
