The virtual programs utilize Aalto EE’s existing/topical online courses. The program outcome and the impact of the participant’s learning experience will be enhanced by tailoring various learning elements around the online courses, e.g., live webinars, assignments between the online modules, online check-ups with the program director and the program director faculty, and small group discussions.

They provide development opportunities for individuals, teams, and organizations alike. They correspond in a variety of ways with the development of new knowledge and skills, for example, in the following situations:
