GBE Experience
This program is about getting the participant on the scene in a unique atmosphere only a cosmopolitan city like New York can offer. It is indeed a field experience.
The GBE experience is unique as it challenges the student with an integrated business and culture reality in English in an entertaining mood.
The program curatorship transforms the program into a by-theme experience. While one day may be dedicated to leadership related activities such as presentations, meetings or even coaching sessions; another may be directed towards sustainability, innovation, finance, services or entrepreneurship, among others.
Part of such an amazing experience is being immersed in the language all day long, starting at breakfast to discuss that day’s main headlines/news and ending in an exciting evening function. GDB is a 12-15 hour/day experience!
Program Structure
GBE is a private on-site super intensive program that takes place in NYC (50 hours, Mo-Fri, 10 hours per day).
