The school caters specially to business managers and leaders who seek professional development, and allows them to earn postgraduate qualifications that will support the qualifications that they have already attained.
INSEAD Executive Education offered its first teachings in France during the year 1959, and since then has made its teachings available for professionals all over the world.
Since its beginning, the school has introduced innovation in their attempts towards the professional development of business executives, being the first in the world to have launched a 10-month Master of Business Administration (MBA) programme.
Throughout its almost 70 years in operation, the school has continued to be at the forefront of inclusivity and bridging the international gap in business executive education.
In example, in the late-70s, the school set up an Alumni fund, which would later work to fund Diversity and Women’s scholarships, whilst 1980 saw the first Euro-Asia Centre being created.
From then onwards, campuses were built in countries in various continents, such as Asia and North America, as well as in the Middle Eastern region, creating access to their business education that much more achievable.
This accessibility has since also extended to distance-learning methods, with online courses being made available for professionals to form their studies around their schedules.
