Organizations benefit from access to MIT’s world-leading knowledge and expertise

Located in Cambridge, Massachusetts's historic Kendall Square, the "most innovative square mile on the planet," MIT is situated right at the center of industry and entrepreneurship, from tech to biopharmaceuticals and startups to Fortune 500 companies. Over 70% of our participants are sponsored by their organizations which is a testament to the impact that our programs have on organizations—short and long term.

Our programs can do big things for organizations. They not only offer a powerful avenue to recognize and advance talented employees, but they also fuel creativity and promote innovation by empowering future leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to solve future challenges. We live in a fast-changing, globally connected work environment, where technology is creating an explosion in demand for new skills. Many specialists, and non-specialists  alike, find themselves in need of foundational or advanced training in new areas, as they increasingly interact with data scientists and machine learning experts on the frontlines of business. What’s more, strong economic growth has created increased employment choices for bright employees. This makes it vitally important for companies to offer professional enhancement opportunities to employees they want to retain. Our programs not only enable upskilled employees to bring back the latest industry practice to work, but also help enhance job satisfaction and loyalty to their employers.

MIT is a world leader

MIT, since its founding in 1861, has been a leader in applying scientific knowledge to real-world issues. MIT led the way in the invention of the first real-time electronic digital computer in the 1940s, developing artificial skin in the 1960s, and demonstrating the theory of quarks in the 1970s. MIT faculty and research teams keep on leading with innovations and theories that break new ground.
