What Learners are Saying

I got promoted to a senior project coordinator role just weeks after finishing the course, so I have had the chance to apply many of the topics covered.

My favorite part of the program was interacting with my cohort members. I shared valuable experiences and feedback and was able to be a thought partner around strategies and best practices.

I am using some of the negotiation preparation techniques from the course in different aspects of my job. Overall, I feel more confident in situations that might have once felt intimidating.

What sets HBS Online apart?

Our flexible, online programs are designed to bring the Harvard Business School classroom to you, and are built around three key characteristics:

Active

HBS Online courses are nothing like a typical sit-back-and-listen lecture. You’ll engage in a new activity every three to five minutes. Each element is designed to keep you interested, involved, and on your toes.

Social

Engaging with your peers is a big part of what makes HBS Online unique. You exchange ideas, offer input, and seek out viewpoints from a community of learners gathered from around the globe. In the process, you learn from each other’s experiences and perspectives.

Case-Based

Immerse yourself in real-world learning. Lessons are brought to life through cases, which put you in the shoes of business leaders. Hear firsthand the challenges they faced, and wrestle with the same issues and imperfect information.
