UPEACE Centre for Executive Education
At the Upeace Centre for Executive Education, we offer transformational educational experiences that are dynamic and engaging while inspiring our participants to have a positive impact in our interconnected world.
We envision a world in which everyone is empowered to use their passions and strengths to act as global change agents. Through educational experiences that integrate learning, creating, connecting and doing, we provide a transformational pedagogical approach that helps people flourish personally and professionally.
Transformative Learning
The pedagogical approach to all courses is engaging, interactive, and case-based, using technological resources where appropriate. The courses incorporate crosscutting themes such as intercultural communication, conflict resolution, leadership skills and teambuilding.
Our online courses offer a perfect blend between one-on-one attention and flexibility for the working professional. Each course is led by an expert in the field that is readily available to participants, a professional that comments on all course materials and provides personalized feedback on assignments. Live webinars are available, but students are able to make their way through the materials on their own schedule during their free time.
Multicultural Networking
During lunch and breaks you will have the opportunity to meet and interact with UPEACE’s international community from more than 50 countries, including our mid-career graduate students and accomplished international faculty. Throughout the course, you will have multiple opportunities to meet with other professionals and leaders of a high caliber participating in the Centre’s courses.
The Centre as a Social Enterprise
At the Centre we teach about social entrepreneurship and managing multiple bottom-lines. We consider it important to practice what we preach, or at least to try hard to do so. In order to increase our impact and provide more people with the tools and knowledge they need to make a difference in the world, the Centre offers partial scholarships to every single class we run in order to allow motivated individuals from different backgrounds to participate in our programs. We routinely offer financial aid to ensure that participants join from low-income countries are able to register for our programs.
