COURSE OBJECTIVE

COURSE FEATURE

1. A Global Perspective on Entrepreneurship

The most influential entrepreneurial mentors from around the world
Multiple overseas modules
Up-and-coming Chinese entrepreneurs from around the world

2. A Range of Updated Curriculums

Lectured by CEIBS professors and industry leaders, each module inspires students to learn by doing.
Eminent professors adopt CEIBS’ trademarked RSLM (Real Situation Learning Method), which aims to help students integrate theory with practice, and “listening” (classroom teaching) with “seeing” (company visits) based on a concise theoretical framework.

3. A Valuable Learning Organization for Entrepreneurs

Eminent professors hold a private advisory board to share their insights with students.
Students pay regular visits for cross-industry exchange and collaboration.
Cross-bother learning with students in CVCC to brainstorm ideas and share experience.
CEIBS Alumni Association for CELC & CVCC has built a lifelong learning community which offers post-CELC activities: "monthly company visits + bimonthly cultural lectures + quarterly business courses".
