Your best teaching - on camera.
In-person classes also greatly benefit by having engaging digital content. By shifting information delivery online, you reclaim precious in-person class time for what truly matters: fostering discernment, building hands-on skills, and sparking Socratic discussions. This approach transforms classrooms into dynamic spaces for real education and deeper engagement.

Meet the instructor
Dr. William McCumber has been coaching and teaching for over 30 years. He is a full professor of finance with research interests primarily in complex financial networks. He teaches online and in person at the PhD, graduate, and undergraduate levels. He takes MBA students around the world on global consulting projects and coaches undergraduate students in the Student Managed Investment Fund.
If he had his druthers, he would be teaching Chaucer instead of agency theory and market dynamics, but he is exquisitely unqualified to do so.
