Action Learning

The ultimate test of the students in an outstanding business program is a “community test” of their ability to complete a real-life consulting project, unstructured in nature, meeting both a set deadline and the client’s expectations. This is the essence of the Action Learning course for undergraduates at Weatherhead. 

Through their consulting projects with organizational clients, our students who have completed the core curriculum are given the opportunity to work with theories in practice, testing and adjusting their skills and knowledge to solve challenging business problems. Interested in working with our students? Fill out the project proposal form. For additional information contact Heidi Bocan at hdd@case.edu.
