Smoother Experiences Campus

Specialized learning experiences for the built environment, running live in our campus.

What the campus is

Smoother Experiences is CEMI’s learning campus. It hosts specialized programs across many fields; the sections below are the ones built for the built environment — engineering, real estate, construction and graphic design.

How learning works here

The campus is built on the Smoother methodology, which starts from what the participant will be able to do — not from what a syllabus covers.

Your practice is the subject

Every experience is anchored in work you actually do. You bring your projects; the program gives you a way through them.

Experiences, not courses

A learning experience is designed around practice and feedback. There is no lecture to sit through and no exam to pass — there is work you can now do that you could not do before.

Formats that fit a working week

From short microlearning sessions to multi-month diploma programs, each format is paced for someone with a job, a site and a deadline.

Your language

Programs are authored in Spanish, English and French — you learn in the language you work in.
