Doelgroep
Our parttime and fulltime International MBA Programmes are aimed at those professionals who are willing and eager to invest in their human capital, an investment that they will carry with them through their professional career, and not only to their next job.
Our MBA Programme is different in that it includes the accepted fundamentals of business education like financial management and business strategy, which we refer to as ‘the science of business’, while also offering what we call ‘art of business’ topics like Coaching, Leadership and Presentations Skills.
Our students and faculty are coming from around the globe. Many of our fulltime students are from
developing countries and emerging, transition economies, while many of the parttime students are
coming from multinational companies, Dutch and foreign, located in Amsterdam like Nike, Heineken, ING Bank, KPMG to name a few.
Our International MBA Programme has the power to transform your future and therefore the future of your organisation and your society.
