Over the past few years, a large number of rankings have emerged that analyze, assess and compare the quality of the most significant postgraduate offerings on the market based on specific criteria.
MBAs and Executive Education are subjects of study and must be evaluated taking into account what is being sought.
In this regard, the most recognized ranking of business programs and schools in the world is that of the Financial Times, since it analyzes the quality of the programs, the degree of student satisfaction with the preparation and design of the courses, the faculty, the importance given to the development of content and management skills, the fulfillment of expectations or the internationalization of the programs.
The Business Institute
It ranks 13th worldwide in executive training programs
The Instituto de Empresa ranks 13th worldwide in executive education programs, and 1st in Spanish-speaking countries, according to the Financial Times 2002 Executive Education Ranking.
This ranking of business schools, which analyzes Open Executive Programs and In-Company Training, places IE Business School as the fourth best business school in Europe, behind IMD, INSEAD, and London Business School, and first in Spanish-speaking countries. In Open Executive Programs, IE ranks first in Europe and eighth internationally.
This excellent result confirms IE's commitment to offering the best executive education programs. Along these lines is the Sumaq Alliance, which IE signed last year with seven leading business schools in Latin America. Its objective is to offer executive education programs to multinational corporations through a shared technological platform, a common faculty of 500 professors, and a network of campuses spread across two continents. IE is firmly committed to applying technology to education and is working on developing online and blended learning programs such as the International Executive MBA.
IE Business School is an international business school focused on training entrepreneurs and business executives. With a broad portfolio of Master's programs and postgraduate courses, it provides the tools and management skills necessary to successfully run a company.
