Online Learning Update

by Harvard Business School

HBX Credential of Readiness (CORe)—the online business fundamentals program launched by Harvard Business School (HBS) last year to provide a strong foundation in the language and tools of business—will now be offered to entering students at Harvard Law School (HLS). Starting in June, CORe will be available on a first-come, first-served basis to applicants admitted to Harvard Law School’s Class of 2018 and to current students on a pilot basis. HLS will subsidize the $1,800 enrollment cost so that the program is available to its students for $250. CORe is designed to teach participants the key concepts of business, using Harvard Business School’s signature case-based approach in a learning environment that requires active participation and social learning. This unique digital learning initiative consists of three courses: Business Analytics, Economics for Managers, and Financial Accounting.
