Business Education in the Emerging Market Economies
Academic quality, internationalisation & Innovation
Even though the global pandemic has inevitably shaken the lives of every business school, it has also provided the exciting opportunity to embrace the uncertainty and embark on designing a new pathway to education challenges.
On this new journey, many questions arise: what to do to keep pace and yet remain attractive? Is a globally credible accreditation a way forward to help us strengthen our programmes and teach us to remain unique? What are and will be the raising trends of post-pandemic education?
This two-day online seminar provides you with an opportunity to join our international community and speakers. Diverse backgrounds of selected speakers, experienced faculty leadership and participants from a diversity of schools will create a rich learning experience for discussions around current challenges, dilemmas and possible solutions, taking into account contextual differences of schools.
Executive Academy - Europe Stream
The empowering development programme for senior teaching & learning professionals
The Executive Academy is a state-of-the-art leadership development programme designed specifically to address the needs of senior leadership roles in business schools.
It adopts a holistic approach, starting with building a solid foundation through a Leading oneself module, allowing participants to explore in depth their own leadership style, strengths and skills to focus on. It continues with Leading others and Leading programmes/institutions, delving into leadership in the context of the specific institutions and teams, as well as in the context of the current challenges of management education as a whole.
The goal of the programme is to equip participants with tools leading to deeper understanding and awareness of their own skills, qualities and purpose in order to thrive as a leader in the digital age business school environment.
Interactive online programme for quality assurance professionals
The Quality Assurance Academy (QAA) is a comprehensive training offer for business schools’ quality assurance professionals. It focuses on developing leadership competencies and managerial skills to meet the diverse professional challenges encountered daily in quality assurance/quality management (QA/QM) work in business schools.
The QAA cuts across all major quality assurance frameworks to develop and refine the participants’ understanding of the underlying methodologies and their purpose. Therefore, it is seen as a general qualification opportunity rather than training to support a specific accreditation project.
The QAA is offered to the EFMD membership and the wider business school community in partnership with Academ by RimaOne.
