Interested in learning about investment strategies from Cornell experts? How about creative writing? Or coding, beekeeping, craft brewing—or any one of a host of other topics? And what if you could study it without traveling to the Hill?
It’s all available through eCornell, the University’s online education platform, which has a variety of free and paid content, including more than 240 certificate programs, customized offerings in executive education, and one-off lectures and panel discussions.
“It extends Cornell’s reach,” says Paul Krause ’91, vice provost for external education and eCornell’s executive director. “We are reaching over 150,000 unique students a year around the world—primarily adults. When you have a job or a family, you aren’t always able to come to Ithaca for traditional learning.”
