Ivey First Class On The Road & Info Session
A unique opportunity to "test-drive" your MBA
Ivey, a leading business school in the world renowned for over 80 years of Case Teaching
Do you want to experience a real case class? Come and join us in Beijing for a lively class
discussion with Professor from Ivey, a world-leading business school.
Ivey is famous for its case methodology and we offer the Chinese prospective MBA applicants a
unique opportunity to experience an Ivey case class.
To participate in this mock class, you need to read a real case in advance; you also need to analyze the case and share your findings in the class with the professor and with other
attendees.
To take full advantage of this opportunity, you should be fluent in English, and able to express
your opinions in public in a structured way. You should also have 3 years or more solid work
experience – business acumen has been proven to be critical in case discussions.
Your commitment is also important – we will request you to spend 2-3 hours before the mock
class to read the case, conduct the necessary analysis and make the management decision, so
that you could effectively participate in the class discussion. (The professor might cold call on
those who are not active in class contribution!)
Due to limited seats for this unique format, we have to make it a by-invitation event. To secure
your spot, please register immediately.
We look forward to meeting you and experiencing a rewarding class on Dec 13. You will also
get to meet Ivey alumni and network with them.
