EDHEC 35th Worldwide in Financial Times Executive Education Ranking

EDHEC is anchoring its position among the world’s top 50 business schools for executive education. The latest Financial Times Executive Education rankings place EDHEC 35th worldwide (up from 43rd in 2009) and 5th in France. These rankings concern both in-house and inter-company education.

This marked progress testifies to the successful development of EDHEC Business School's executive education programmes, in line with the school's business impact strategy: EDHEC ranked 40th for inter-company training and 43rd for in-house training. The EDHEC MBA is part of EDHEC's Executive Training Unit.
The rankings once again underlined the highly international nature of EDHEC's programmes: 3rd for the international location of inter-company training, 11th for the diversity of nationalities participating in programmes, 12th for the international location of in-house programmes. This marked internationalism is notably linked to the development of risk management and asset management training programmes incorporating the expertise of the EDHEC Risk Institute, and to the Global Business Model programmes.

These rankings confirm EDHEC's major role in training the world's financial and economic elite and particularly its anchorage among the leading pack of European institutions says Olivier Oger, Dean of EDHEC Business School.

In addition to its education programmes, EDHEC transmits the results of its research to over 3,000 executives in 28 capitals worldwide each year. This expertise has provided the springboard for the opening of a new EDHEC campus in Singapore in 2010. The new facility will be used to train Asian financial industry professionals and EDHEC students, via Executive, Masters of Science and doctorate programmes.
