MT5920 Enterprise Development module has pushed me out of my comfort zone to go out and

speak to the experts in the industry, understand their current pain points, and crystalize them into

a marketable product. It has really helped me in my career in terms of drilling down of the pain

points that Customers might have, because many of them do not even realize. It has helped both

myself and the Customers with coming up with targeted solutions that address their most essential

need.

Yanadi, Senior Analyst Offshore Services, Milaha

Enterprise development puts you in the seat of a business developer as well as a business owner.

Bringing ideas to fruition is an important skill, whether you are an employee or an entrepreneur. It is

the right blend of hands on assignments and class lectures. You’ll learn collaboration, negotiation,

presentation and execution skills in an intense but rewarding package. Highly recommended

course!”

More Testimonials

ED is very interesting module. we learn how to work as a team, how to give a pitch in relatively short time

and also how to get ideas from people that we dont know. It is not only helping me to build a good business

but also improving my problem solving skill in my daily life. ED is a great module for anyone who loves to

work hard and wants to become an entrepreneur."

- Azmi, CEO Sipanen

I would gladly say that if they want to learn both hard

skills and soft skills at the same time that will surpass their

expectation. They should take this course. This is besides

that fact that you’ll got the chance to closely work on

company or technology that is not theoretical, not

hypothetical, not philosophical but real and actual

- Gonzales

I think a course like this is invaluable, as there are no other courses out there that provides you with a platform to learn, experience, and try, without implications. You will be surprised at the skills (especially the soft skills) that you develop from the whole process.
