Ashridge
ASHRIDGE works with over 6,000 executives across the globe every year. Our faculty bring in-depth industry experience, latest management practice, informed insights and real commitment to learning. We believe the Ashridge MBA is special in several ways:
World-class reputation. As a provider of executive education, Ashridge is ranked 6th in the UK, 14th in Europe and 35th worldwide by the Economist Intelligence Unit, and first in the world for Salary Increase (2009). Ashridge is one of the very few schools worldwide to achieve triple accreditation from AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB.
Focus on application. The ‘live’ consulting project, which is part of the MBA, goes beyond theory by giving you the opportunity to put into practice all that you have learned by delivering a strategic consulting assignment to a business client. The international study week is also designed to consolidate learning, by giving you direct experience of the complex issues faced by businesses in an emerging market. The programme is delivered by a dedicated faculty who are practising business professionals and/or consultants.
Small group sizes. This ensures you benefit from individual attention. You should expect an interactive style of learning. Classroom sessions are highly participative, favouring an exchange of ideas and information to enrich peer group learning. Ashridge MBA participants have significant professional experience, forming one of the most experienced student cohorts in the business school world.
Range of learning methods. We recognise that experienced managers learn best in a variety of ways, not only by traditional lecture-style teaching, but also through ‘learning by doing’. Ashridge does not rely on any one pedagogical tool, such as the case study method. We use faculty input, facilitated discussions, experiential learning, psychometric instruments, one-to-one feedback, e-learning, live case studies, simulations, personal coaching, guest speakers, self managed learning and organisational visits.
The Ashridge Library. Ashridge’s world-class Learning Resource Centre also houses an extensive range of career resources, which are available to you at anytime.
Unique learning environment. Situated in a stunning location, steeped in history, containing some of the best teaching facilities a business school can provide.
