Three Tracks - One Learning Community

Executives are expected to be extremely flexible, and they, in return, expect the same from the business school they choose. Thus, we provide you with two different formats (modular and weekend format), making our program suit your work and private schedules. In all three tracks the core courses and the central idea of executive education are the same. In addition, we promote participant interaction and networking between the three tracks and with alumni. All these are essential features of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA.
