Overview

Demystify differential pricing and revenue management

How do airlines, hotels, resorts and other organisations manage their prices? Why are these prices apparently unrelated to costs and different for each consumer? And what are the underlying reasons and processes behind these prices?

On this course you’ll answer these questions and more. You will consider the pricing strategies of different industries and explore the mechanisms at the core of differential pricing and revenue management.

Through the course you will apply your learning to practical pricing problems, pricing simulation games and interactive case studies.

This course is for any professionals looking to apply pricing strategy and revenue management techniques to their organisation. It will also be useful to students of economics and business as well as everyday consumers keen to understand why and how prices vary.

    Nice variety of the learning material: clear and short videos, cartoon like animations, interviews, articles, and also access to a fantastic online pricing simulation platform.
    The course is very concrete and practice oriented, and I am redefining right now my own pricing strategy thanks to it.
    Highly recommanded.

It looked like the least objectionably on the list but turned out to be the one of the best course I have ever done. Absolutely Brilliant! I have learnt so much and thought about topics that I would have never have done before. I would highly recommend this course.
  • Very interesting and well prepared introductory course to this fascinating topic. Tutors are very involved, both preparing the materials as well as answering your questions and comments. This is a topic that every business oriented person should take seriously.

    Good basic course. The concepts are presently simply and clearly. The course is easy and short enough to complete even if you have limited time.
    Do not expect an advanced or detailed revenue management course . The quizzes are very simple, good enjoyable basic intro to RM.
