Case Method Training
ecch has been running case method training workshops for nearly 40 years. The ecch open workshop portfolio covers both general aspects of case writing and teaching and programmes for specialised situations, such as executive education or undergraduate. Workshops are held regularly at international locations and range in length from one-day introductory workshops to comprehensive three-day events. ecch also runs workshops for teachers in sectors such as entrepreneurship and finance, which address the particular challenges of learning in specific areas. Unique customised workshops are also held for organisations to ensure that learning objectives, time span and budget requirements are met. Learning with cases is a new and challenging experience for many students. ecch offers special tailored sessions at universities and business schools to help students use case studies. ecch tutors include some of the world's most experienced teachers of the case method, several of whom have written books on the subject. All are experienced case authors.

Famous quotes containing the words case, method and/or training:
“If someone does something we disapprove of, we regard him as bad if we believe we can deter him from persisting in his conduct, but we regard him as mad if we believe we cannot. In either case, the crucial issue is our control of the other: the more we lose control over him, and the more he assumes control over himself, the more, in case of conflict, we are likely to consider him mad rather than just bad.”
—Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
“Government by average opinion is merely a circuitous method of going to the devil; those who profess to lead but in fact slavishly follow this average opinion are simply the fastest runners and the loudest squeakers of the herd which is rushing blindly down to its destruction.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“I’m not suggesting that all men are beautiful, vulnerable boys, but we all started out that way. What happened to us? How did we become monsters of feminist nightmares? The answer, of course, is that we underwent a careful and deliberate process of gender training, sometimes brutal, always dehumanizing, cutting away large chunks of ourselves. Little girls went through something similarly crippling. If the gender training was successful, we each ended up being half a person.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
