Running from 17 to 30 months, the track is connecting academic inputs, how to put them into practice in real projects and individual professional transformation. Starting in November 2022, it will be taught in French, and will also include 3 major face-to-face highlights on the campus of emlyon in Paris and in Lyon-Ecully, and a study trip in Europe.

Besides courses, participants of the online Executive MBA must also carry out 4 group projects corresponding to each module, as well as an individual strategic project, to put their competences at the service of their own organization or another professional project.

A committed and historic training

Be it online or face-to-face, the Executive MBA aims at preparing executive directors in designing and implementing new economic models aligned with the socio-economic issues of organizations.

In compliance with the School’s environmental and commitment policy, all of the courses of the Executive MBA were redesigned against the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and according to a set of core skills in CSR. The program was ranked number 4 by the Financial Times in its 2021 Executive MBA ranking on the ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) criteria.

At the end of the online Executive MBA, participants receive the professional certification "Dirigeant d’entreprise" (business leader), a level 7 on the RNCP (National Directory of Professional Certifications) 35160 record. The School has been delivering the Executive MBA for 25 years, another important anniversary emlyon is to celebrate this year, along with its 150 years of existence.
