How much time will the Project Teams require outside of the scheduled session?

Although you will have time during each session to reconnect with your team, time will be required outside of the sessions to complete the projects.  The amount of time required depends on your topic and focus area.  Some groups spend an additional 12 hours working on their project outside the provided class time.

How much of the day will each session take?

Each session will require a full day out of the office.  We strongly discourage participants from leaving a session early or coming late to avoid disrupting presentations and activities.  This allows every participant to get the most out of their BRLI experience.
