    great content, but teambuilding and team work was so distressing, For example there was somebody in my group who sended only two mails, but as he is a team member I think he got his certificate. Also when our group melted to only two, it was more than difficult to find other members or to move to another.
    I think also that time to read and time to teamwork should be more differentiated, I personally missed time to get into the videos and lectures. Not everyone ist keen on english reading. Reading and commenting could produce at the end of it anindividual evaluation, teamwork would continue being then a shared evaluation. That would be more just and effective for all participants I assume.
  • This was the second course from Leuphana that I joined and this time was lucky to be a participant (in 2015 I acted as supporter).
    This course is outstanding from many other online courses. I learned so much and gained a new perspective of my personal talents.
    A great community - very open minded people and always pushing the boundaries of thinking. The mentors and teachers are always there for us. I will miss this great family and hope to meet them again next year for a further edition!
  • I love the dynamics, the content of the course and especially the interaction with the mentor and other learners.
    I recommend it to everyone seeking to improve their knowledge in the cultural industry as well as expanding their networking.

    I started taking this courses as a supporter, it was very difficult for me to join the course as a student because of my Kids & job & responsibility.
    but it was so good & opened my mined to many challenges & helps me to solve many problems in work environment of the cultural center where I am working.

    Very good quality course: interesting methodology, very good and up-to-date material.
    I took part as a "supporter".
    Participation as "participant" means quite a commitment with reading and team work.

    A very interesting course that had me to look with a new perspective on many things despite the fact that I was able to finish only half of it, a very sad fact I sorely regret.

    The course content was awesome, but Would have been ok if some sort of group/ mentoring was available for volunteers too.
