Short Overview

The CIN program trains professionals capable of adapting to the requirements of each type of negotiation. This goal is achieved by combining theory and practice through:

  • The program's structure, which covers all the heterogeneous knowledge required for a professional negotiator.
  • The program’s 16 lecturers, who are successful professionals in their own right, but also possess the required academic background.
  • The eight Case Studies - Role Plays for honing negotiation skills, which are of the highest international standards, and for which the program pays a license to use them,
The final paper (with a required length of 3500 words), with which each student proves he/she gained knowledge and skill in negotiating, by handling a real negotiation’s case.

Learning Goals
At the end of the program, our graduates will be able to:
  • identify each negotiation's case model based on 20 variables that include all possible criteria on the players’ behavior,
  • adapt, according to each model's case, their behavior to 13 types of strategies, of which eight lead to agreement and the rest to non-agreement,
  • integrate the program’s supporting and special topics accordingly, and
  • handle complex practical negotiation cases.
Program Value
Our negotiation approach is interpretive, which allows the modeling of each case and consequently the prediction of the other side’s behavior, resulting in increased efficiency. All types of actions lead to negotiations if these actions affect the other player’s interests. Therefore, according to our concept: "Each relationship relates to negotiations". This is demonstrated by the fact that negotiation skills are essential in heterogeneous activities by, e.g., the following kinds of professionals:
  • Managers (sales, procurement, human resource management, public relations, relationship management, finance, crises management),
  • Lawyers & Mediators,
  • International affair specialists,
  • Communication specialists (etc.).
In addition, knowledge gained by participating in this program enables the use of the Negotiation GPS, a consulting tool for handling all types of negotiations (www.negotiationsgps.com).
Evaluation Method And Final Grade Computation
Assessment is based on the following: (i) Multiple-choice quizzes at the end of each module, (ii) Eight negotiation simulation exercises, (iii) A final exam based on a 50-question multiple-choice question paper, (iv) ) A final assignment of 3,500 words. For the conferral of the training certificate, a final grade of at least 50% is required.
Learning Method Description
The program uses the eLearning educational method: learning takes place purely asynchronously (that is, on days and hours that serve the trainee, without mandatory attendance at a specific time or day), exclusively remotely (using a special educational platform via the internet from the trainee's area) and using digital educational tools such as video lectures, interactive self-assessment exercises, and other elearning tools that ensure effective and flexible individual self-learning. The program's training material becomes available at specific time periods, based on the training path followed, and then remains available on the training platform without restrictions throughout the duration of the program. If conditions allow, there are also live presentations on topical issues, questions on the part of the participants, and specialized negotiations exercises.
