Deciding which education you use to broaden your mind and skills is a one of the most important choices that can affect your life. So what can the Kenichi Ohmae Graduate School of Business offer you?

Today in Japan, education still focuses on the rote teaching of facts and figures. Students are trained not to discover answers for themselves, but to memorize a set of prepared answers. Praise is given to students who reach a prepared answer faster than someone else. This pattern continues into employment, where young employees receive on-the-job training from their seniors and are encouraged to follow tried and tested methods of operation. In a fast-changing business environment, this type of knowledge acquisition isn't enough. Indeed, it can actually stop innovation in its tracks.

This is why our school has created programs that cultivate problem-solving skills for real problems in real-world situations. We believe that no traditional classroom-based or on-the-job training can offer this kind of practical application.

AirCampus® is an effective and competitive system. Everything from the registration of modules, online examinations, downloading of texts, lecture viewing and so forth can be done from your PC. Our AirCampus system enables students to exchange information and have lively online discussions with other course participants, their professors and teaching assistants. Furthermore, our patented viewing system makes it possible to check if students have viewed the required content. After this, individually tailored questions are delivered to that student. In short, our system makes the "mass customization" of business educational content possible.

Our broadcast system can also handle real-time question and answer sessions over the Internet. By employing such an interactive feature, we are delivering a more realistic "classroom" experience. Even at a distance, students can feel they are really learning next to one another in class, AirCampus opens up global communication, and allows executives to share knowledge and build international networks over all continents.

We offer online, real-time case studies based on the most current business issues. We center week-long discussions around "what would YOU do if YOU were the president of this company?" scenarios. Participation in these discussions requires active research, analysis, and a sense of purpose. Compared to a typical "one-way" educational environment, we are thus promoting a much more meaningful and interactive learning experience. This interaction is not only between students and teachers, but also between students and students. Our patented viewing system also makes it possible to quickly and easily confirm that the required course content has been viewed from anywhere in the world.

Our AirCampus system is designed specifically for working professionals, flexible enough to provide management training to employees at home and abroad. All of our students continue their full time job and are able to study at their convenience, and in accordance with their work schedule. There is no opportunity cost involved with students having to quit their jobs and find another upon graduation. In addition, as students are working as they study each day, they can really benefit from applying their newly learnt knowledge immediately to their jobs. Lectures can be watched repeatedly during the entire time students are enrolled on the course, whether students decide to opt for a rigorous two year format or the five year format.

In short, AirCampus is the perfect educational solution for ambitious business people who want to economize on time to reach their life goals.
