The Endorsement Process

Day 0

Application & Endorsement Kick-off

Once your application is accepted, you will receive a business problem as part of the endorsement process. The problem will test your ability to research markets, competitors and users. It will also test your ability to solve problems through structured thinking.

Week 1 - Week 2

Deep work to solve the problem

Through the first two weeks, you will work on your own time to solve the business problem and support will be available if you need any help. This will involve documenting your progress and preparing business documents you will use for your jury presentations.

Week 3

Industry Jury Presentation

You will present and defend your work in front of a panel of two senior business leaders.

You are judged on the depth of research, problem solving, critical thinking ability, data-driven decision making and communication skills.

The jury then gives a go-ahead for their endorsement if the candidate clears the internal benchmark score.

Week 4

Endorsement Results

The results of the Endorsement process are declared within 4 working days of the jury review.

If the experts decide to endorse you, you will need to furnish 2 external letters of recommendation from your college faculty, senior colleagues, mentors or managers in order to receive your Endorsed certificate.
