Overview
As part of the annual #WorldCaseTeachingDay celebrations, The Case Centre announces a scholarship programme for new case teachers.
Five case teaching scholarships will be offered each year to support the development of new case teachers.
Richard McCracken, Director of The Case Centre, said: “Supporting case teachers and writers is a critical element of our mission, and I am delighted to extend our scholarship programme* with this exciting support for new case teachers.”
“The case method has long been acknowledged as a powerful teaching tool but getting started can be daunting. Our case teaching scholarships are designed to support and inspire new case teachers through their journey, by providing a comprehensive range of training, mentoring and resources.”
Applications for the 2021 case teaching scholarships open on 5 February and close on 2 July.
*The Case Centre has offered a case writing scholarship programme since 1998.
The Case Centre is the independent home of the case method and is dedicated to advancing the case method worldwide, sharing knowledge, wisdom and experience to inspire and transform business education across the globe. It is a not-for-profit organisation and registered charity.
