Executive MBA Programs Thousands of executives attend executive education/executive MBA (EMBA) programs at business schools worldwide each year. Most of these programs condense or accelerate the coursework, with courses meeting once per week (e.g., on weekends). These programs can typically be completed in two years. Students tend to be older, full-time managers from various organizations with a significant amount of experience. Advantages of EMBA programs include interaction with managers from other organizations, maximum input of new ideas, high quality of instruction, and the prestige afforded by having a university affiliation. Commonly perceived disadvantages include inadequate exposure to information specific to an organizations needs, the high price, and insufficient numbers of instructors within a given program who are effective at teaching experienced adults.95 Critics charge that some programs are merely watered-down versions of MBA programs, with poor quality of instruction and lax admission standards and with the primary goal of generating income.96 Are EMBA programs effective in developing managers? Some research addresses the question.97 Typical results of EMBA evaluation studies indicate that participants are generally satisfied with their experience, feel that they have been broadened by their exposure to new ideas and people, and have gained increased levels of self-confidence.98 Organizations continue to support such programs.99 Most organizations use EMBA programs as one component of executive development, in addition to other in-house and external activities (e.g., succession planning, short courses).100 Organizations interested in EMBA programs should carefully examine their development needs and investigate the programs they consider using. Discussions with administrators, faculty members, and alumni can yield useful information, and there is considerable information available online.101
