Harvard Division of Continuing Education

The Division of Continuing Education (DCE) at Harvard University is dedicated to bringing rigorous academics and innovative teaching capabilities to those seeking to improve their lives through education. We make Harvard education accessible to lifelong learners from high school to retirement.

What We Do On-Campus Learning

Executive education programs offer life-changing, on-campus learning experiences

For senior leaders, there is often no substitute for face-to-face learning. To enrich the impact of the learning experience for your senior leadership, our executive education programs can incorporate powerful living-learning experiences on the Harvard Business School (HBS) campus as part of an integrated enterprise learning solution tailored to your needs.

An immersive experience

On-campus senior leaders are fully immersed in a holistic experience that is uniquely enriching. In addition to expanding their knowledge and expertise, executives examine where they’ve been—and where they want to take their careers and their organizations. Many of our alumni and participants have called this a life-changing experience.

Engaging interactions

Participants interact closely with HBS faculty and a peer group representing diverse organizations, industries, and cultures. Executive education programs are taught by full-time HBS faculty, drawing on research and real-world experience to disrupt traditional thinking and spark innovative ideas. Lectures, business simulations, and small-group discussions foster collaboration with peers.

Rich campus life

Learning extends beyond the classroom. Harvard Business School executive education programs include “living groups” carefully designed to encourage leadership development through case study discussions, small-group projects, lively lunchtime discussions at the Chao Center, and evening excursions to Harvard Square. Participants make new connections and form lasting relationships that continue long after the experience ends.

Tap into the HBS alumni base

HBS offers several executive education programs that offer alumni status where graduates become members of the exclusive HBS alumni network: more than 78,000 alumni representing global leadership in more than 160 countries. Connect with peers through HBS social media channels and newsletters, and the Harvard Business Review .

“This program is unique, not only because it brought together a diverse group of investment management leaders, but also because of the diversity of topics covered. It was a tremendous experience.”

Learner Stories

Strategy Execution FAQs

Could you tell me a little more about the ai course assistant chat bot.

You can think of the beta version of the Strategy Execution AI Course Assistant chat bot like a virtual Teaching Assistant who can help you consolidate and confirm your understanding of course concepts. When you are finding a particular concept difficult to master, or would like additional examples of a theory, try asking the bot your question in the same way you would phrase it to a human TA. Over time, we hope to add additional functionality to the Course Assistant (including the ability to answer questions that are more logistical or administrative in nature), but the ability of the bot to handle such queries may be limited or absent at this time. Please note that no preexisting familiarity or experience with generative AI is necessary or assumed to use the bot and, while we encourage you to engage with the bot and share your candid feedback on your experience, a lack of engagement with the bot will not adversely impact your eligibility for a certificate of completion.

What are the learning requirements in order to successfully complete the course, and how are grades assigned?

Participants in Strategy Execution are eligible for a Certificate of Completion from Harvard Business School Online.

Participants are expected to fully complete all coursework in a thoughtful and timely manner. This will mean meeting each week’s course module deadlines and fully answering questions posed therein. This helps ensure participants proceed through the course at a similar pace and can take full advantage of social learning opportunities. In addition to module and assignment completion, we expect you to offer feedback on others’ reflections and contribute to conversations on the platform. Participants who fail to complete the course requirements will not receive a certificate and will not be eligible to retake the course.

More detailed information on course requirements will be communicated at the start of the course. No grades are assigned for Strategy Execution. Participants will either be evaluated as complete or not complete.

What materials will I have access to after completing Strategy Execution?

You will have access to the materials in every prior module as you progress through the program. Access to course materials and the course platform ends 60 days after the final deadline in the program.

At the end of each course module, you will be able to download a PDF summary highlighting key concepts used throughout the course. At the end of the program, you will receive a PDF compilation of all of the module summary documents. We hope the module summary documents will serve as a helpful resource after you finish the course.

LONDON , February 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

EF Education First, the world leader in language training for business, government and the education sector, announced today the signing of a Letter of Acceptance with Republic of Tatarstan's Ministry of Education, taking their partnership into its second phase for another four years.

The first phase of the partnership was the co-development of Ana Tele , an online school based on EF's cloud-based platform for studying Tatar. The project aims to preserve the Tatar culture and its language which, in addition to Russian, is the official language of the Republic. Ana Tele has taught 10,000 students during its first year. The second phase involves over 40,000 students, taught by teachers provided by the Ministry, while EF provides support and maintenance of the Ana Tele school.

The Ministry's investments in language training were also recently expanded to include English training via EF's online school- training more than 5,000 teachers, students, professors, and public sector employees. 

Peter Burman , President of EF Corporate Language Learning Solutions, commented: " We are   extremely   proud to be   the long ter m partner of the   Republic   of   Tatarstan   in these prestigious projects. "   Mr Burman continues: " We are unique in that we can   easily scale our resources to address the entire population of 4 million citizens with an affordable cloud-based school   featuring   live teacher classes. "

Fattakovh Engel Navapovich, Minister of Education and Science of the Republic said, "Education is a key priority for the Republic of Tatarstan. EF's online learning platform has allowed us to reinforce use of the Tatar language, which is integral to our heritage and culture, while also focusing on the future by learning English. We are very proud of Ana Tele and results from this partnership and look forward to continued success over the next four years."

EF already partners with various government entities to help thousands of teachers, students and public sector employees in language training, including the Saudi Ministry of Education (T4EDU) and the Saudi Electronic University, The French Ministries of Defense and Interior. EF is also the Official Language Training supplier to the Olympic Winter Games in Sochi in 2014 to 70,000 participants of the Sochi 2014 Organizing Committee.

The strategic partnership with the Republic of Tatarstan's Government is an important step for EF in its future expansion in Russia . It demonstrates the capability to develop and provide solutions for all the various needs in the country.
