“I signed up for the [learning strategy] lab with Dr. Martinez. We got to work with Humentum, a global nonprofit, and evaluate courses. You conduct research, assess and discuss scholarly articles and then present your findings. And for me, that’s a perfect way to apply your learning outside the classroom.”
- Claudia Achilles
“In every single class, I was able to take my learning and directly apply it to my career in organizational performance. We worked with real clients and applied what we were learning to produce deliverables for our clients. This level of real-world experience was invaluable.”
- Megan Renaldo
“The research and service-learning-based coursework gave me tools and experiences that I could apply immediately in my career, and because of this, I was promoted to the learning and development manager for my company. The flexibility of the online format has enabled me to complete the program in two short years, during a global pandemic, while working a full-time professional job, and helping to raise a family.”
