Free Online Course on Cooperative Business and Enterprenurial Guilds
Announcing a new online course in cooperatives at UConn:
Cultivate the cooperative movement!
More than 800 million people around the world are members of
co-operatives, including an estimated 1 in 4 Americans. And yet, few
colleges or universities offer courses that explore the contribution
co-ops make to our economy and society.
The University of Connecticut realizes the dire importance of co-operative
economies and offers you a new 3-credit online course, Introduction to the
Co-Operative Movement. You will learn about the history and philosophy of
the co-op movement, and its relevance to modern economic challenges.
Online courses provide the flexibility and opportunity to participate with
students of all ages from a variety of states and countries. Join us this
spring for a truly refreshing and energetic view of a focused economic
infrastructure from wherever you are.
