This course is designed to help anyone who wants to make a positive impact on society, but doesn't know how. Whatever your age, academic background or professional context, it will help you find the path that is right for you to make a difference. You will learn how to move from desire to idea, and from idea to action.
Jointly developed by professors and experts from HEC Paris and Ticket for Change, the course is conceived as a learning journey guiding you through the different steps to find one’s way as an actor of change. Along three main phases - Inspiration - Introspection - Action – you will: - Develop awareness of the role and means of actions of social and environmental changemakers. - Take stock of your own aspirations, motivations and strengths. - Define your objectives towards a personal and professional transformation and initiate an effective transition to action. At every stage of the course, you will: - Gain concepts and methodologies from the fields of innovation, entrepreneurship and sustainability to help frame issues at stake, define and structure a viable project. - Develop self-awareness thanks to concrete self-development tools and exercises. - Get inspired by the testimonies of social entrepreneurs and corporate leaders sharing their experience. The last module can be customized to your professional context or project as you may choose between three tracks whether you are aiming at becoming a "social entrepreneur", an "impact employee", a "corporate changemaker".

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
