Certain aspects of the course, including office hours and group discussions, will require the participants to coordinate scheduling with instructors and/or other participants.

Online course participants also have exclusive access to monthly Lunch & Learn webinars focusing on a range of important industry topics with expert insights and Q&A. For a preview, watch the March 2020 Lunch & Learn with Joe Horowitz, Managing General Partner of Icon Ventures.
