Our Proficiency Assessment Program allows employers to pay for an assessment of the subject-matter knowledge of employees.

This unique program allows members to receive personalized, expert-level evaluations from PhD-qualified professors, who assess their proficiency based on the core concepts, theories, and practices taught in our comprehensive, business courses.

Through this program, members can choose to be assessed in a wide range of business disciplines, including finance, marketing, management, entrepreneurship, economics, and more.

Each assessment is carefully crafted by our professors to measure the student’s depth of understanding, analytical abilities, and practical application of the subject matter. The assessment process may include case study analysis, theoretical examinations, and problem-solving exercises tailored to the field of study.

The Business Courses are a collection of college-level courses – the same courses offered in the core curriculum of most business schools. The courses are designed to offer the same learning material and method of teaching that you would encounter as a student in a college or university business school.

Note: We do not currently hold accreditation or offer degrees. We are a learning community – not a traditional college.

Our proficiency assessments cover the subject-matter, material taught in our Business Courses. Each assessment is subject-matter specific. You can prepare for the assessment by completing and continually reviewing the material in the subject-matter-specific, business courses.

Many of our courses provide topic-based and discussion questions to test understanding of the material. We are working to introduce intra-course quizzes on each topic. Quizzes are not currently available in all courses.

Our business courses are meticulously organized to offer a flexible and comprehensive learning experience, mirroring the curriculum taught in leading business schools. Each course is designed by PhD professors who are experts in their respective fields, ensuring that students receive the highest quality education.

Course Organization:

1. Short-Form Video and Audio Lectures:
   Each course is built around engaging short-form video and audio lectures delivered by PhD professors. These concise, easily digestible lectures are designed to convey complex business concepts in a clear and accessible way, allowing students to absorb information quickly and effectively.
2. Chapters and Learning Topics:
   Courses are divided into chapters, with each chapter focusing on a core business area or concept. Within each chapter, individual learning topics are explored in depth. This organization allows students to progress through the material at their own pace while maintaining a clear and logical learning path.
3. Multiple Learning Formats:
   For each learning topic, students will find multiple short-form explanatory videos that break down key ideas into bite-sized segments. In addition, written explanations accompany these videos to reinforce understanding, providing a balanced mix of visual, auditory, and textual learning tools.
4. Comprehensive Coverage:
   The curriculum and content of our courses align with what is taught in traditional business school programs, ensuring that students receive a robust and well-rounded business education. Whether it’s finance, marketing, strategy, or entrepreneurship, each topic is presented with the depth and rigor found in top-tier academic programs.

This structure is designed to maximize flexibility, enabling students to engage with the content in a way that fits their schedule while still gaining the knowledge needed to excel in their business studies and careers.
