EXECUTIVE COURSES
In April 2021, the BSIA launched the Balsillie Executive Institute (BEI) to offer certificate-based professional development short courses in international public policy and global governance topics. These courses are perfect for those looking to upgrade their skills, without a commitment to full-time education.
BEI’s suite of courses vary in length and delivery style. Current offerings include:
Courses: Ranging from 4 days to 2 weeks in duration, these certificate-based courses cater to middle- and senior-level careerists interested in enhancing their skills and remaining abreast of sector-specific multidisciplinary thinking.
Masterclasses: These 3-hour condensed courses cater to careerists of all levels seeking expert knowledge on domain-specific topics. Each masterclass covers key concepts and issues, trends, challenges, and approaches to problem-solving.
Executive Certificate: A professional qualification that equips future public policy, industry, and not-for-profit leaders with the skills to operate and lead in the digital world. The program includes micro-credential pathways in Digital Transformation and Digital Public Policy.
Custom Courses: The BEI also offers bespoke course delivery, which can be tailored to suit specific organizational needs in terms of course content, length, and mode of delivery.
The BSIA alumni network is eligible for discounted rates on BEI courses, masterclasses and the executive certificate. To explore upcoming opportunities and to register, please visit balsillieinstitute.ca.
