Academic Programs

Immerse students in a real-world situation with on-the-job experiences.

We have been developing online master's programs for over a decade. Our academic programs leverage our Story-Centered approach to immerse students in a real-world situation with on-the-job experiences. Students apply the skills needed to be successful and leave the program with a portfolio of real-world deliverables to help them land competitive jobs in their chosen field.

Below are a few examples of the organizations we have worked with to build successful academic programs:

  • XTOL (eXperiential Training On Line) provides learn-by-doing experiential master's programs in partnership with degree-granting universities all over the world. Socratic Arts is XTOL's exclusive design and development partner.
  • LaSalle University, in Barcelona, Spain, offers an Experiential Online MBA program that provides students with a top quality business education that allows them to hit the ground running as soon as they graduate.
  • Carnegie Mellon University's Silicon Valley Campus offers master's programs in information technology, innovation, software engineering, and software management.

When Carnegie Mellon University established a Silicon Valley Campus in 2002 it wanted a cutting edge curriculum that would enable students to acquire and practice the essential skills and knowledge that they would use upon graduation in the real world.
