Keep your skills up-to-date
When we ask our alumni what they would like CBS to offer, a lot of them express a wish for academic input.

  • Syllabus – see what students in your former degree programme are studying right now
    Through Academic Books, you can register for the syllabi given to current students in your degree programme.   In this way you can stay updated on what the students within your area are currently studying -  we bet that a large part of the syllabus is new, but who knows, it might include some of the classics from back when you were a student.

  • Online access to database with business articles and market reports
    Alumni have access to the database Business Source Alumni Edition from home. At the CBS Library, you can search all of its databases.
  • Free delivery of books borrowed at the CBS Library
    Register as user and take home books from the CBS Library. If you are not in the neighbourhood, the Library will send the books to your home address for free.

  • Take supplementary courses at CBS
    CBS has a number of offers for you if you wish to obtain another degree or take a supplementary course. Besides diploma programmes, MBA, and executive master programmes, CBS offers small programmes and single courses.  For instance, it is possible to participate in courses of less than a week's duration at the CBS Executive International Summer Programme.
