Corporate university

The essence of the idea of corporate university is a direct transfer of serious pro-
fessional education into the sphere of real business and management of a corporation on
the basis of its own corporate training center.

There are two ways to create the corporate universities. First, it is an alliance of
a company with ordinary educational organizations - business schools or institutes of
high education. Second, it can be independent department in the structure of the com-
pany. The first way is more widely spread. The combination of the educational and
practical experience of companies and educational organizations is the ground for a
quick and comparatively cheap creation of the corporate training center (Vikhanski,
Naumov 2002).

Teaching programs are constructed in accordance with business requirements:
all sets of modules and subjects, teaching schedules, duration of the courses and so on
