Details about this class
This course uses an instructor-developed Business Playbook along with Emotional Intelligence 2.0 materials. The course focuses on practical business concepts, including entrepreneurship, business ownership, management, marketing, teamwork, communication, customer experience, ethics, and workplace decision-making.
Students should expect applied business activities, reflection assignments, professional writing, and real-world business examples rather than a traditional memorization-based textbook course. The course is designed to help students think like business professionals and connect course concepts to everyday business situations.
Students who already own Emotional Intelligence 2.0 do not need to purchase the book again, as long as they still have access to their assessment results.
Because this is a fully online course, students should expect to complete weekly assignments, readings, and activities independently while managing their time effectively.
Technology
Students will need access to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PDF viewing software, or equivalent programs that can create, edit, save, and upload .doc, .docx, .xlsx, and PDF file
No show policy
