                        most difficult time, but all the professors were really helpful and

                        positive in all kinds of situations, especially during the pandemic,

                        we conducted all the academic activities online. Surprisingly, with

                        the efforts of each UDD member, not only did they maintain the

                        high quality of the courses, but there was also a commitment to new

                        innovative methods of teaching and communicating. Even at the

                        other side of the Earth, 20 thousand miles away from Chile, I still

                        felt   like   I   participated   in   all   the   courses   in   person,   which   is

and interact with your classmates. Before connecting to the class webinar, you must have seen and

completed the associated videos and quizzes, hosted on Canvas.

Tutorials:   A tutor will be assigned to each team, who will guide and recommend the best plan of

action to obtain results in the short and long term. The program includes the realization of at least 5

tutorials, which will last approximately 1 hour per session. The meetings with your tutor who will be

assigned to you after the initial panel, can be held online, through the platform that best suits both

you and the tutor (Hangouts, Skype, Zoom).

Panels:   There will be an initial, intermediate and final panel, where each team must present

developments of their project. The jury of each panel will be entrepreneurship experts who will give

the feedback and will evaluate you from a grade of 1,0 to 7,0. You must obtain a grade higher than

4,0 to pass the panel and be able to continue in the program.

Networking Activity:   There will be an instance after the intermediate panel to share experiences,

suggestions, contacts and feedback among the students of the program.
