PROGRAM DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT
Our four-stage custom process is designed to provide a superior learning experience and promote organizational transformation.
Our team works with you and your stakeholders to thoroughly identify the core of your organization's learning objectives.
We work to create a learning framework around your organization's needs and develop a needs assessment. The learning framework addresses core business needs and takes place at your organization, on the Berkeley campus, online, or a combination of all three.
Custom programs can take many forms, whether a week-long intensive program on campus or a partnership with blended online learning and executive coaching. You will have a wide range of opportunities to access the Berkeley experience in a way that meets your needs.
A long-lasting partnership between your organization and Berkeley will ensure that learning and development at your organization stay ahead of the curve. Berkeley Executive Education conducts a thorough post-program assessment that helps guide the next phase or phases of the partnership.
CUSTOMIZE AN EXISTING PROGRAM
In addition to creating a one-of-a-kind course of study for your organization, any of our existing Open Enrollment programs can be customized to help your business and team reach its goals. We'll work with you to create the perfect mix of curriculum topics from your selected program. We can also combine two or more programs or add breadth and depth to existing training depending on your learning needs.
