to be essential partners in the professional development of our team members.

For Mark Delisi, director of corporate responsibility at Computer Sciences Corp.
and former head of the company's Leadership Academy, a partnership with
eCornell over the past six years has been a success. Initially, he says,

the company was looking for an Ivy League executive-education program
for senior executives in the company who are spread out around the globe.
Later, Computer Sciences expanded it to include managers.

"Content-wise, access-wise, [the online program] is as good if not better than the
in-person experience," Mr. Delisi says. Inside the company, he adds, the program
is seen as "clearly adding value; it's helping our executives and senior-level people
do their jobs better."
