Patten University Invitation to Patten Community

We are pleased to announce, as a part of a special Patten University initiative, the opportunity to enroll in one of two Stanford University online courses, with all course fees covered by Patten University for qualifying participants.

​

Both courses—Achieving Innovation through Inspiration and Business Model Innovation—are taught by Stanford faculty and provide valuable lessons for both professionals and emerging leaders. The self-paced courses are delivered via                                  

 

You can view and complete course materials, video lectures, assignments, and exams at your own pace, online. You also get 60 days of email access to your Stanford teaching assistant. Upon successful completion of each course, you will receive certification in the form of an official and digital Record of Completion from Stanford Online.

 

In addition, Patten participants will also be invited to attend a live virtual webinar, designed especially for Patten. 

 

Enrollment will be on a first-come, first-served basis, to the Patten community, at no cost to the individual.
