The course instructor is seeking for opportunities to teach the course either online or in a classroom setting in campuses around the world.
The course has been taught in a classroom setting for example in New Delhi India at IILM in November 2017 (https://www.iilm.edu/) at the WSG University of Economy in Poland in 2012-2015 (http://www.cwz.wsg.byd.pl/en/homepage.1.html)
