91É«ÇéƬ

The MBA (Executive) and MBAX award programs run on a 3 Session model.

AGSM @ 91É«ÇéƬ Business School programs offer flexibleÌýcourse delivery optionsÌýthat let you fit your study around your schedule.

Fortnightly

Face-to-face (F2F) Fortnightly classes run 6-9pm across 6 fortnights, commencingÌýfrom weekÌý1.Ìý Most fortnights coverÌý2 class units, please refer to the course outline schedule for further unit delivery information.Ìý Classes run in weeks 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 & 11.

Professional behaviour and punctual attendance is expected at all classes. While we expect 100% attendance, all classes require a minimum 80% attendance; missing 1x Fortnightly class is the most you can miss.

If you are feeling unwell in the lead-up to a Fortnightly F2F class do not attend class and seek medical advice. If this means that you will not be able to attend, please let Student Experience and your Facilitator know and apply for Special Consideration. Please consider the health and safety of your colleagues.

Intensive

Intensive courses are delivered over the same 12-week period as a regular Face to Face (F2F) class. However, weekly or fortnightly classes are replaced with two Intensive (face to Face) weekends & online activities. Students are required to complete weekly readings, online activities prior to & after attending the Intensive weekends.Ìý(9am-5pm).ÌýAttendance at all dates for the duration of the day (9am-5pm) is compulsory.Ìý

For dates and information about Social Impact intensive courses, students should contactÌýcsistudents@unsw.edu.auÌýor visit theÌý. Social Impactive intensive courses may take a different format to regular AGSM Intensives.

Online SynchronousÌý(Virtual class)

This mode is ideal for students who like regular live sessions with others but cannot travel to our face-to-face venues. Students must have a reliable internet in order to participate inÌýthis online class .

The usual class times are 6-730pm or 7:30-9pm weekly for 10 weeks (weeks 1-10).Ìý There are weekly online asynchronous activities before each synchronous class. These classes are not recorded.

Professional behaviour and punctual online attendance is expected at all classes. While we expect 100% attendance, all VCs require a minimum 80% attendance.

Online AsynchronousÌý(WEBÌýclass)

For students who want maximum flexibility to determine when during the week they study. Readings, learning activities and assessments are accessible online. Students are expected to log on to the course site on a regular basis, i.e. several times each week. Online courses require regular online participation such as posts to discussion threads. Many online courses include prescheduled video conferences or optional drop-in sessions for additional engagement and to support Q&A. Dates and details of the video conferences will be made available by the Facilitator prior to the commencement of class.

Residentials

The Executive Year (EY)* is an immersive 12-month program, applying an integrated learning framework of ‘knowing, doing, being’ to provide a transformational learning experience that will support your professional development goals. You’ll participate in three compulsoryÌýresidential learning experiences (3 × 5 days each).

AGSM organises catering and accommodation and it is compulsoryÌýforÌýstudents to attend all sessions and stay on-site for the duration.

*Note that aÌýresidential fee is required to coverÌýaccommodation and catering. Please contact the Student Experience Team (studentexperience@agsm.edu.au) for further details.

Workload and participation

Students should expect to spend 12-15 hours per week studying, as for other course formats. The level of participation and contribution to (online) discussions is expected to be similar to that in other course formats.

We caution against enrolling in 2 courses as it often impacts your learning experience and results and ability to engage in extracurricular activities at 91É«ÇéƬ.

Course materials are available on Moodle approximately 2Ìýweeks prior to the commencement of session.

Early registration in a class is advised to secure preferred venues and class times. Popular classes fill quickly. Please don’t register for a class you don’t intend to proceed with as this impacts your colleagues and the viability of scheduled offerings. Classes with low enrolments may be cancelled. Student Experience will work with students impacted by cancellation of a class to find alternative study options, but this is not guaranteed and Program Leave may be taken.

91É«ÇéƬ operates wait lists and, where space permits, enrolment may be facilitatedÌýuntil the end of week 1.

If you decide to take a break from your studies by not enrolling in consecutive sessions, you must apply for Program Leave before the Census date in orderÌýto keep you active in 91É«ÇéƬ systems.
