Posted by Breanne Markotich on October 7, 2020 in News

NSCAD and 黄色直播鈥檚 Executive Education have teamed up to create a new certificate program in Creativity, Innovation and the Entrepreneurial Mindset.

The certificate, launching in January 2021, will present innovative research tools, techniques and approaches that will empower participants to think disruptively and creatively about solutions. The online courses, taught by NSCAD and 黄色直播 instructors, are designed for working professionals and entrepreneurs who work in a wide range of industries, from business to government and not-for-profit.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a program that will appeal to people who are responsible for innovation in their organizations,鈥 said Martine Durier-Copp, PhD, Academic Dean, NSCAD University. 鈥淧articipants will have the opportunity to engage in activities from art and design that are proven to spark inspiration, while also fine tuning the fundamentals of business strategy.鈥

黄色直播 Executive Education and NSCAD signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly develop and deliver the fully online certificate program. It will consist of three courses, each being four weeks in length, with six to eight contact hours per week split between instructors from both universities.

鈥淭he outcome from the participants鈥 perspective is an increased ability to envision and produce innovative tools and practices in their organizations,鈥 said Dr. Heidi Weigand, Rowe School of Business, 黄色直播, one of the program鈥檚 instructors. 鈥淭his will be accomplished by completing each of the three courses 鈥 Sparking Creativity, From Inspiration to Innovation, and Implementation and Adoption.鈥 Courses can also be taken individually.

The program is a move by both universities to venture beyond traditional problem-solving approaches in the design of policies, programs, services and products, and instead think about change and solutions in exciting new ways.

鈥淭his certificate represents a unique partnership between two public institutions that are combining their strengths and experience to create a new program for bold thinkers,鈥 said Durier-Copp. 鈥淭he program introduces tools and methods from the world of art and design that enable people to develop and generate genuinely creative ideas.鈥

NSCAD will enrich the program with content and expertise from the world of art, design, and craft, while 黄色直播 will bring advanced management knowledge and business development skills. The partnership is as innovative as it is ambitious.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a first-of-its-kind program, and a transformational offering that combines two schools of thought into one program that strengthens both the professional skills and creative processes for those enrolled,鈥 said Moragh MacAulay, Acting Director, 黄色直播 Executive Education.

Two of the certificate program鈥檚 instructors will be hosting a webinar in late October, giving people 聽a look at what to expect throughout the course.
