Learner goals and capabilities

Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from NYIT to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over the experience of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.


Learners in this program/experience are finishing their Master Degree in either MBA or Energy Management. They have learned most of the knowledge in the courses they have taken, but are looking for a real world project to "get their hands dirty".
