Curriculum
ODCP includes concepts and theories of OD, and human processes that play out (at Individual, Group and System level) with a strong focus on internalisation of these two dimensions through application and practice. The understanding and practice of OD Values – inclusion, diversity, equity, collaboration and continuing learning are the foundation of ODCP.
The Academic Process is designed to instill in the participants, an understanding of both, concepts and processes. The participants learn and embrace Action Research methodology to understand the external world by experiencing its reflection within themselves and others; and by putting theory to practice. Thereby they also get to understand how to facilitate change at different levels.
