100% online — complete your degree in as little as 1 year

Accelerate your trajectory without pressing pause on your life. With a focused pathway, you can complete the programme in as little as one year, helping you seize emerging opportunities sooner—whether that’s stepping into a leadership role, expanding your remit, or transitioning into a new sector.

Because the learning is purposefully structured for busy professionals, you get depth without unnecessary delay. Every module moves you closer to the knowledge and capabilities you need to deliver outcomes on time, on scope, and on budget.

No fixed class times or dates

Your schedule is your own. The programme does not require you to be online at specific times, giving you complete flexibility to study before work, after dinner, on weekends, or in focused sprints that match your rhythms and commitments.

This autonomy is especially valuable for professionals juggling project deadlines, stakeholder meetings, family time, and travel. You choose when to engage with lectures, readings, and assignments so you can learn at your peak—and perform at your best.

Study anywhere—even offline through our mobile app

Whether you’re at home in Ottawa, visiting clients across the city, or travelling, your classroom is wherever you are. Our mobile app lets you download study materials and watch lectures offline, so you can keep progressing during commutes, waiting times, or when Wi‑Fi is patchy.

This “always-with-you” learning model turns spare minutes into momentum. Instead of waiting for perfect conditions, you move forward in deliberate steps—making it easier to sustain focus, retain knowledge, and meet your milestones.

Open-book assessments that mirror real work

Real projects are solved with research, collaboration, and critical thinking—not memorized answers. That’s why the programme uses open-book assessments instead of classical question/answer exams. You’ll apply frameworks to realistic scenarios, analyze evidence, and justify decisions with clear, professional reasoning.

This approach sharpens the skills that matter on the job: structuring ambiguity, integrating data, communicating trade-offs, and producing defensible recommendations. It builds a portfolio of work that reflects how you think—not just what you can recall.

Learn from faculty educated at leading universities

Your tutors bring academic excellence and practical insight, with credentials from world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel, and Washington University in St. Louis. They understand both the theory and the day-to-day realities of project leadership.

Through their guidance, you’ll refine your judgment, expand your toolkit, and approach challenges with a more strategic lens. The conversations you have, and the feedback you receive, become catalysts for how you lead projects, communicate with stakeholders, and manage change.

Join a truly global network

Study alongside professionals from over 130 countries. The diversity of your cohort exposes you to varied industries, cultures, and ways of working—broadening your perspective and enriching your problem-solving repertoire. You’ll graduate with an international network of peers who challenge and support you long after the programme ends.
