Aiming to enhance the business skills of young professionals and students while fostering international cooperation, CaseKey Academy has been launched. This initiative promises to revitalize business education.
As a hosting partner of CaseKey Academy, the YSU Faculty of Economics and Management will assist in organizing several courses in this year's educational program. Participants can benefit from a wide range of resources provided by the faculty. The partnership between CaseKey Academy and the YSU Faculty of Economics aims to create a dynamic and conducive educational environment.
By leveraging the resources and extensive experience of both institutions, the program will provide participants with a comprehensive and enriching learning experience. This partnership highlights the significance of collaboration in advancing business education and underscores the commitment of both institutions to supporting the education of business leaders.
Arshak Karapetyan, Co-founder of CaseKey, pointed out that the academy aims to enhance the competitiveness of the Armenian educational system on the international stage and establish a new benchmark in this field.
The academy is the educational component of the CaseKey competition. Its program was developed in collaboration with Peter Verhalen, a professor from North Carolina, USA, and the head coach of the university's business problem-solving team. Professor Verhalen will also lead the entire educational program.
"This program will give Armenian students the opportunity to develop global business analysis skills, improve their experience and lay the groundwork to become tomorrow's leaders. I express my gratitude to Team Telecom Armenia for providing students with this opportunity," said Peter Verhalen.
Due to overwhelming interest in the academy's courses, organizers have introduced distance learning formats. Originally planned for 100 participants, the program will now include 190 students from various universities in Armenia, engaging in a two-month intensive training course. Professor Verhalen will work with local coaches, sharing his international expertise and introducing effective coaching techniques. At the program's conclusion, teams will tackle real-world business challenges.
