Business U is providing MAX stakeholders another opportunity to participate at a discount in their Certified Business Engagement Professional (CBEP) cohort starting Tuesday, February 5, 2019.
Certified Business Engagement
Professional™ – 6 seats left!
This course is designed to gain the necessary knowledge and skills to engage
business and industry successfully as a partner in sector strategies, career
pathways, work-based learning, and as a customer with government-funded
services. It culminates in an interactive capstone project—a strategic business
engagement action plan (BEAP) that includes a one-on-one consultation (oral
exam) with the course facilitator. Unlike other courses that offer
“certification,” Business U’s comprehensive and facilitated online course is
accredited by the International Association for Continuing Education and
Training (IACET) and developed by Business U’s subject matter experts and
winner of the IACET 2017 Innovation of the Year Award in Learner Engagement.
“There are engagement practices that I’m definitely going to change as a result of getting certified with Business U. What I learned is that businesses are wired differently and we have to meet them where they are in their heads every day. A business’ main mission is to be competitive, which is definitely not our mission. But, our role is not to show up and talk about all our programs and what the business can do for us, but rather to demonstrate how our services can help them in their mission.”
