However, there are many other key areas to value how your degree will help your development.
- Skills and knowledge grow quickly and you will be able to immediately apply what you have learned to your daily professional activities. You are thus able to add greater value to your company or personal business almost immediately.
- Stronger leadership capabilities, increased confidence, personal and professional benchmarking are all objectives of your KEDGE’s experience.
- Value also comes from your increased capacity to find innovative solutions and manage complex change. Gaining business acumen, increasing global connections, having the capacity for self-reflection as well as taking a “step back”…. put you at a truly Executive C-level.
The KEDGE part time MBA commits to helping you achieve in all of these areas to maximize your EMBA investment.

International dimension
Meeting and working with international students, interacting with a global Faculty, benefit from international major Executive MBA partnerships.
KEDGE’s campuses abroad surely give the school an international reach in terms of faculty, students, global network and image.
KEDGE international exposure and implantation overseas expresses its capacity to train executives with an international ambition and with an international background.
KEDGE established a premier campus in China (Shanghai), in partnership with Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and is the only French part time MBA programme to be formally recognised by the Chinese Government.
It enables our participants to interact both professionally and socially with participants from different cultures. Some seminars are delivered with European-based and Chinese-based cohorts all together. We ambition to motivate KEDGE cohorts to mix and network. Likewise, French-based Executive MBA participants visit their Chinese peers for another core course in Shanghai.
KEDGE has initiated collaboration with other universities and Executive MBAs in Europe: Frankfurt School of Finance & Management in Germany and SDA Bocconi School of Management in Italy.
“The international visit component of the KEDGE part time MBA is one of the strongest and most substantial elements of this kind that accreditors have observed while assessing part time programmes.” AMBA Global MBA last assessment report.
