EDHEC, which celebrates its hundredth anniversary this year, is among the exclusive 1% of institutions worldwide to have been awarded the triple accreditation (EQUIS, AACSB, AMBA), a clear reflection of the excellence of its programmes.
The Executive MBA provides a top quality programme with cutting edge content thanks to the input from its five internationally recognized Centres of Excellence and Research. The students benefit from the focus on a firmly international strategic reflection. The difference is also felt in the methodology employed and the tailored approach to each individual project firstly because the entrance selection is designed to build a truly cohesive group, and secondly because each participant benefits from highly personalised support in the form of individual coaching which focuses on decision-making and the development of managerial competencies.

Three semestrial seminars take place abroad, in Eastern Europe, Asia, and North America, and the infrastructure is ensured by EDHEC's global partner university network. Through company visits and input from top international executives, these seminars aim to enhance the development, and understanding of Business Models on a global scale. In addition, the bilingual teaching input (French / English) also helps the students improve their international communication skills. These aspects are decisive in developing an international management dimension.

We pay careful attention to the composition of each year's student intake: We ensure that there is a good balance between potential and experienced professionals so as to optimise the group dynamics and the exchange of experience. If you already have 15 years of experience and have managed hundreds of people and considerable budgets your experience will be extremely interesting for younger managers. At the same time, you will benefit from their different perspective and feed-back on your managerial practices and this will also be a highly profitable experience for you. For the new academic year 2006, the Executive Centre will enable you to keep in close contact with your company and to benefit from excellent working conditions.

Among the key strengths of this MBA are personalised support facilities such as coaching which centres, among other things, on decision-making and the development of managerial competencies. The aim is not only to enhance your capacity to make decisions but also to stimulate reflection on a professional development plan so as to rapidly implement the new knowledge gained during the course. In addition, a personal coach will be available throughout the programme to guide you in developing your managerial competencies. There is also a high degree of operational support as, for example, the possibility to receive personalised language courses if necessary.
