This course is designed to provide students with (1) basic notions of the practice of international relations (2) a general overview of the management challenges international and not-for-profit organizations are faced with as well as key theoretical frameworks and practical tools for managers to excel in this environment. Key areas of management will be reviewed, from strategy setting to implementation through marketing and fund raising, and assessment.

  1. undertaking the course via Tubeclasses (if available) ($ 800.00) ;
  2. undertaking (free) MOOC courses and having the assessments suitably externally proctored and then applying to Calwest for credit towards their degree program ($ 25 per course);

If you wish to undertake the Calwest Tubeclass for this course, the lecture topic PowerPoint’s that relate to the text book will be provided upon payment of the course fee ($ 250). The link to the recommended MOOC provider will also be provided, and can be used as a supplementary vehicle for those undertaking the course. Students however have the choice of undertaking a MOOC course without enrolling in a Tubeclass, but need to have their assessments suitably proctored. Some Calwest elective courses do not have a Tubeclass, and in such cases students need to undertake the course via a MOOC offering, or at another accredited university.
