All the participants who successfully complete their program will receive an MIT Professional Education Certificate of Completion, as well as Continuing Education Units (CEUs)*.
To obtain CEUs, complete the accreditation confirmation, which is available at the end of the course. CEUs are calculated for each course based on the number of learning hours.
*The Continuing Education Unit (CEU) is defined as 10 contact hours of ongoing learning to indicate the amount of time they have devoted to a non-credit/non-degree professional development program.
To understand whether or not these CEUs may be applied toward professional certification, licensing requirements, or other required training or continuing education hours, please consult your training department or licensing authority directly.
Course outline
The New Space Economy is global, entrepreneurial, and, most importantly, accessible. It is increasingly diversified and expanding with private players across a variety of sub-sectors. There is a truly astronomical growth in funding and investing. This has been made possible because the New Space Economy is finally connecting to the global economy.
