SME Management Consultant qualification
The major feature of this program is that while participants learn the basics of management systematically, they do the management consulting training 5 times in 2 years, at SME in various industries such as manufacturing and distribution.
As the management consulting training is based on the knowledge learned in the classes and led by faculties who are the consulting professionals, participants can deepen the understanding, and enhance the practical ability. They can also develop the ability to advise and consult towards the SME managers. We have received high reputation from the alumni that they gained the confidence as management consultant through the management consulting trainings at the SME, which led them to be the independent consultants or to start their own business, and they can apply what they have learned in the program to the actual consulting scene.

Case Method
3 steps to develop the management skills effectively using case method
Analyzing skill; logical thinking; presentation skill; leadership skill; management requires wide-ranging skills. NUCB Business School develops these using the case method repeating the three major steps: preparation, group discussion, and class discussion.
-
STEP 1
Individual preparation: case interpretation, hypothesis generating
Participant receive the casebook in digital format 2 weeks before the class starts. They read the case and examine the reasons the company may succeed or struggle. They need to complete hypothesis generating of the assignment before the class, referring to the text and recommended books the faculty present.
-
STEP 2
Group discussion: reach the conclusion through many discussions
Participants start from the group session. They break into small groups as instructed beforehand, and each group goes into group rooms and share the idea of each member, exchanging the opinions for the assignment. Each member clears their thoughts and get a deeper understanding for the case.
-
STEP 3
Class discussion: pursuing the best management decision in the class
Participants discuss under the facilitation of the faculty, using polls and raising hands to speak, about questions such as “the project of this company seems to be about to fail, should they proceed? Do you agree or not?”. This leads to a deeper consideration through opinions from different perspectives. The ultimate goal of case method is not in reaching one conclusion in a class, but in reflecting the participants’ own attitudes in the case that they face the same situation they read in the case in the future.
All the classes adopt practical case method, and have the curriculum which enables participants to obtain the skill to overview the entire management of corporation as SME Management Consultants. The classes based on discussion proceed from the basics to the advanced, and to the further expansion in order, which should be easy to follow for those from science field or beginner of business economics.
