ORGANIZATION AND TUITION:

The ODM Program is organized in 12 two and a half day module units. Modules are organized every 1 to 1.5 month, with breaks during summer (July and August) and winter (December and January). Emphasis is on practice (70% of group work, work in triads/pairs, individual work, feedback from faculty, assistants and peers). Between modules students are encouraged to engage in continuing practice: reading, mentoring groups and peer- or individual-oriented work on self-assigned projects. Each individual determines the amount and type of practice they want to do between modules, depending on their individual life circumstances and interests. Support is provided in the form of peer mentoring and supervision from faculty and assistants. The final module focuses on the review of skills and knowledge developed and presentation of impact the School had on each student. Individual and group feedback are provided to each student.

After the third module, practice sessions start to increasingly focus on developing Executive Coaching skills.

Tuition is 7.920 EUR + VAT and includes costs of enrollment, faculty staff, work spaces and all the materials. Tuition does not include student transportation, accommodation and meals..

Tuition is paid in advance. There is an option to pay in four (4) installments, with a surcharge of 9% (8.633 EUR + VAT). School is organized in sprints that cover specific topics, but each sprint builds onto the previous ones. Therefore, it is students’ responsibility to attend each sprint. In case of absence due to force majeure, students are responsible to do their best to catch up with the group.

All modules are closed residential retreats. They start at 18:00 the first evening (with dinner and group follow-up) and end at 17:00 (at the latest) on the last day:
