Semester 1 - Profits and Prices - in this semester students will learn what first second and third degree sales is, as they mercilessly learn to fleece friends family and others at home throughout the term with hard driving sales. They will cold call on neighbours and try to mark up goods to the max amount sellable, as well as try out other discount bulk sales techniques to maximise profit on a continuous basis. Students will source products cost effectively on their own and choose their own markups. While we allow bankruptcies at this early stage in the programme, we expect students who run dry of liquidity to be creative and resourceful in obtaining a convincing comeback by the end of the year.
Semester 2 - Law & Litigation - To adequately preparer students for the tasks and unexpected tricks entailed in the standard C Level executive course of commercial life, this semester is devoted to learning winning courtroom strategies. As a fieldwork project students are required to pick someone in their lives to sue and to file a real court case awarding them substantial real life damages which the defendant pays up or if the defendant is a potential competition, results in debilitating financial loss. The jurisdiction, nature of the relationsip to the student of the target, other subpoenad individuals all factor into final grade.
Semester 3 - Media and Machines - In the final semester of this finishing school, students' imaginations are tested to the limit with real life media companies using all sorts of social media and publishing technologies, as students go about completely fabricating an event, product or person and series of narratives within which the student will apply his previously honed sklllws in sales and in the courtroom. We expect students to be able to file a final extremely damaging legal and media attack on their opponent showing complete disregard for ethics, human values or everyday workplace culture. In 90% of cases our students end up able to avoid courtroom battle completely as their method of attack affects the candidates' newly chosen defendants' mindset to such a debilitating degree that court battle is avoided by the latter as a course of preference and no counter attack is forthcoming. The student who manages to make more money than his peers within this cynically selected narrative arc becomes a graduate with distinction and often goes on to high level politics or international corporate ownership.
Keep sane during the hype
