Creating a Culture of Learning
A unique benefit for 51成人猎奇鈥檚 corporate partners is the opportunity to create a cohort academic program for employees.
A unique benefit for 51成人猎奇鈥檚 corporate partners is the opportunity to create a cohort academic program for employees. Tuition costs for corporate cohorts are covered in full by the corporate partner. Eligible employees pay nothing out of pocket for a career-enhancing degree experience that adds value to the organization.
What is a Cohort?
A cohort is a group of employees who begin and finish the same academic program together. Classes are held weekly after work hours, taught by Webster faculty members, and held on site at the corporate partner鈥檚 designated facility or online.
Cohorts can be tailored to provide instruction specific to the corporate partner鈥檚 business needs, offering a directly relevant yet robust educational experience to employees.
Benefits of a Cohort
To assist the professional development and educational opportunities of eligible and qualified employees of our partner organizations, 51成人猎奇 seeks to offer academic programs, including relevant academic support services on site at an appropriate facility provided by the partner. Live Virtual (synchronous) cohorts are also possible. The singular goal is to ensure that Webster works to enhance our partner organization's capacity to recruit, retain and develop talent.
Strengthening Organizational Relationships
Webster鈥檚 experience has found that when employees participate in an academic program of study together, organizational relationships between employees are increased and enhanced.
Making Coursework Relevant to Employee and Company Needs and Challenges
While Webster is fully responsible for the planning and development of the academic programs and courses provided at corporate partners鈥� sites, the University provides partners the opportunity to work with faculty to ensure cohort coursework is relevant to and reflective of the needs and challenges employees and the organization are facing.
Creating a Corporate Culture Where Learning is Emphasized and Supported
By providing this unique and valued opportunity to employees, an organization鈥檚 leadership helps to champion the importance of education with employees and drive a culture of learning within the organization.
Academic Support for Cohorts
51成人猎奇 provides ancillary services, such as academic advising, student registration, textbook facilitation and online access to cohort schedules, and additional information appropriate to student's needs.
Cohorts offer these services at times and in formats most compatible with the work schedules and programs of the partner's employees.

Text on screen: 51成人猎奇 Program Spotlight: Master of Health Administration (MHA)
Text on screen: Daniel Mueller, Visiting Assistant Professor
[An interview shot of Daniel Mueller fades into a montage of photos with students.]
Daniel Mueller: We exist to educate working professionals to be future health care leaders, to serve in managerial leadership roles in our health care system.
Text on screen: Douglas Whitman, Assistant Professor
Douglas Whitman: A business school class is going to teach great detail about running the financial side of a business鈥�
[Another, longer montage of photos of students in health care and administration. Footage switches between shots of Whitman and other photo montages.]
But we need to be able to understand how those apply in health care. For example, Medicare, Medicaid. Those represent a substantial portion of the income to any health care organization, a doctor's office or a hospital, and those are not taught in a standard business school finance class. They are taught in a health care finance class, in our MHA program.

Mueller: Our faculty are really well prepared. They bring out real world examples in the classroom, especially in our structured activities and case studies.
Whitman: The examples, the case studies that are used would be from the health care industry.
Mueller: That's correct. All the subject matter that we teach in our course 鈥� health, policy, law 鈥� is focused on issues specifically designed by health administrative individuals, taught by our practitioners.

Text on screen: LIVE VIRTUAL FORMAT
If a student wants to take a full-time program, they will take two classes at a time and they can complete the entire program in 16 months. If a student would like to take it on a part-time basis and take one class at a time, then it would take about 33 months for them to finish.
We want to be able to provide the tools that people will need as they become directors, department leaders and C-suite level executives in an organization.
Text on screen: A diverse and global ALUMNI NETWORK

The alumni network is incredibly valuable. We are experienced. We have a long-practiced system of teaching health care leadership to students.
