The Financial Times has awarded IMD, International Institute for Management Development in Lausanne, Switzerland, the top position in Europe, among business schools, for the quality of its executive education programs (combined rankings) and the third position worldwide. In this annual survey, IMD is also ranked 1st in Europe for its custom and open enrollment programs.
Peter Lorange, IMD President, commented: “IMD’s steady rise in the rankings shows that our Real World, Real Learning strategy works. Executives appreciate our highly relevant research, diverse learning methods and our global meeting place. We have one - relatively small - campus in Lausanne, where top executives from all over the world come together to learn and network. As this is our only campus, we benefit from maximum diversity, both in terms of participants and professors. With our unique mix of open and partnership programs, IMD is a fully fledged learning partner for global corporations.” |
