Our network brings together faculty, senior management, Edtech project managers, learning designers, and media experts to co-create the very best online learning experiences.
Together we have shaped one of the most powerful and intuitive learning platforms which enables us to produce personalised, interactive, and high-touch learning journeys.
The aim of mentorship is to promote learner development by drawing out and giving shape to what a student already knows. A mentor serves as a guide rather than a provider of knowledge. They introduce students to a new world, demonstrate methods of interpretation and help them to learn what they need to know to function in it.
Mentors teach by interpreting the environment. They also support, challenge, and provide vision for their students. An online class cannot teach itself. Students benefit tremendously when teachers actively participate in all dimensions of an online learning space.

Education is not about simply acquiring knowledge. A student’s education profoundly affects who they are and how they think about themselves. It is risky and deeply transforming. Education involves being challenged. To expose students to otherness and difference and to challenge them to respond is therefore one of the most basic tasks for teachers and educators.
So ask difficult questions and allow students to embrace different possibilities. Personalised feedback and real-time interactions will always help individuals embrace their learning experiences.
Trust is an important constituent of educational situations and relationships, and never more so than in online spaces. Building fully networked global communities which develop social and intellectual interaction is essential.
Online education creates many of opportunities for individuals to learn about alternative contexts and situations. So leverage the power and influence of the network and encourage sharing and collaboration.
Beautifully curated and designed content is great, but it is not enough. Embrace the immediacy of learning by making content, ideas and arguments real and relevant to business and industry. The business world changes rapidly - it is fast, exciting and dynamic.
Draw on links to events and trends which are happening right now and help learners uncover interesting connections and approaches. Cite cutting edge research and case studies. Invite thought leaders to share their views. Encourage discussion and exploration of real-life issues and developments.
Be organised and communicate clearly. Delivering courses in a consistent format helps students navigate a programme of study successfully and keep track of their responsibilities.
Learning designers can help provide innovative delivery suggestions. Technology experts can ensure tools function smoothly and effectively. And programme managers and coordinators oversee the administrative logistics of teaching at scale and at distance.
