We are delighted to announce the launch of our brand new “Fast Track” course format for the CAS in Team Management and the CAS in Change Management. The “Fast Track” format offers a condensed but equally comprehensive experience, spread over 7 weeks. Rest assured that course content remains unchanged from traditional training, ensuring that you don't compromise quality for speed.

Find out more about this initiative in our interview with Lionel Stoudmann, Executive Director of Executive Education HEC Lausanne.

Interview with Lionel Stoudmann

How did you come up with the idea of launching this new program format?

The idea for this new format came from the strong demand for our CAS programs in Change Management and Team Management.

We also took into consideration the fact that many people, including those undergoing retraining or career transition, are looking for a faster option to obtain key skills. The 7-week “Fast Track” format has been specifically designed to meet these needs.

Depending on feedback, we may also consider other programs in this format in the future.

What are the benefits & challenges of this "Fast Track" format?

Among the many advantages, I would highlight three main ones:

  • Obtaining a university degree in a relatively short space of time, shorter than many other training institutions, but without affecting the necessary investment in terms of time.
  • To be in a constant training process for a few weeks - certainly one of the main, if not the main, preoccupations of participants during the training period.
  • The possibility for the employer of a faster ROI, since the training is condensed in time.

As for the challenges, they include:

  • Managing to combine private and professional life with the time available for training - a real organizational challenge.
  • A lot of material to integrate in a relatively short space of time.

Is the course content identical between the two formats?

Yes, they are! There have been no compromises or reductions in quality or teaching time. The level of quality and recognition is the same in all our CAS, whatever the duration. In the end, the time devoted to teaching and personal work is identical.

Is there anything else you'd like to add?

We're delighted to be able to welcome people who are interested in one or other of our short courses, thanks to the increased number of annual registrations.
