For this years graduates (may or now), there are a collection of sashes in the BI house in the living room, including 13 "BI/BI" sashes (far right) which any major can use. Unfortunately the IECE banners are not finished (will be by Thursday evening). Also there are not all LAS majors or COB majors and we did not get a list of what there are so I'm getting a few sashes for every major but they all will not be ready until late Thursday. There are also BI patches. Sorry we cannot have a real graduation but we are proud of all the BI students and know some of you may appreciate having these for photos. Terry

Both remote and in person opportunities.
Remote programs

The SemesterAccelerator Program is best suited to current students (though those graduating in the Spring may also want to review the GradLaunch Program).

In brief, the SemesterAccelerator Program provides students a part-time, semester-length remote work placement with a leading employer completed in tandem with our Future Leader and Career Navigator courses.

Together, these provide students with the necessary practical experience, in-demand skills and commercial awareness training, and professional networks and job seeking know how to launch successful careers.

And, critically, the SemesterAccelerator Program is designed and paced so students may undertake it as they study from campus or home.

Admissions are open now, with start dates commencing on a rolling basis. Naturally, places are limited and allocated on a first come first served basis (as is CI Student Aid). Early application is advised.

In-person programs

Predictably, recent vaccine news has led to interest in our summer 2021 in-person programs increasing further still.

Though we continue to work to increase capacity for summer 2021, especially for our two most popular programs, the Global Accelerator Programs in London and New York, we anticipate closing them to new applicants early in the New Year.

Again, admissions are open now (with our guarantee of enhanced flexibility that has been available throughout the pandemic). And again, early application is advised:
