Methodology.
The Business Development Institute (BDI) follows a market demand-based educational and training methodology that focuses on providing learners with the skills and knowledge that are in high demand in the business development job market. Our methodology is based on the notion that education should be tailored to the needs of the economy and the labor market to enable our program graduates to be equipped with the skill sets that will help them succeed in their careers while filling in the employment needs of growing enterprises - especially the small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
Industry Aligned Curriculum
BDI's curriculum is always aligned with the business development global and local trends, needs and can be always tailor to fill in further industry or sector-specific needs: The courses and programs offered are designed to meet the skills and knowledge that are in demand in today's job market and focus on aligning demand and supply for the ultimate impact.
Focused Strategic Partnerships
BDI started developing partnerships with Egyptian SMEs way before starting the development of the curriculum. We take pride in being highly responsive to the demand of local SMEs when it comes to their business development needs. Our partnerships are always a win-win for the learner, the enterprise, the industry and the Egyptian economy at large.
Hands-On Learning
Unlike many international similar programs, BDI's educational goals are always synthetized to the local Egyptian context. The majority of our program assignments, case studies and practical learning tools have been developed in collaboration with our partners, real Egyptian enterprises focusing on real-time and contextualized business cases. Our partners give feedback to our learners, who learn from real potential clients and/or future employers. Now this hands-on learning is as real as it gets!
