Real Time Cases

The goal of Real Time Cases is to change the landscape of higher education for professors and students through experiential learning. The company believes that contemporary education neglects to adequately prepare students for the professional work environment. Education should reward creativity while being fun, relevant, practical, interactive,and up-to-date. They foster these values by equipping students with the tools they need to approach and resolve issues for real and established companies. Real Time Cases allows students to gain experience through helping real companies assess opportunities and resolve issues in the marketplace. For the first time ever, students and professors have exclusive access to information directly from the CEOs of startup, high-growth, and mature companies from around the globe. Bridging the gap between the intellectual classroom and the dynamic professional work environment, we allow students to incorporate their own personal experiences, critical thinking skills, unique creative potential, and research capabilities into assignments from top-level management. | $600K / Angel / Aug 01, 2015 | |
