Advantere Pedagogical Approach
We have reacted to the discovery that we have to re-learn the way we learn. Because new times require new solutions and the best collaborators.
That’s why we created The RE-SOLUTIONARY learning method, a real-time, genuinely project-based re-learning.
- Learning by doing. Learning by doing is the best and proven way not only to get a better understanding of anything but also to give you the mindset and competencies necessary to put into practice your knowledge and ideas.
- Learning by living. Ultimately living in an international environment encourages students to create solutions in different contexts that operate in different ways. By collaborating with people from different disciplines they obtain the necessary perspective to approach challenges in a much more flexible way, acquiring a different mindset for life and their professional careers.
- Learning by designing. At Advantere we go beyond this concept and our students learn by facing real challenges coming from new and unexpected issues in organizations and society, designing and creating executable original and not-before-thought solutions. Facing uncertainty, creating solutions, adding value. Because as managers this is what you will be expected to do every day in your professional life.
