    What is the value of an Online MBA?

    EDHEC offers a comprehensive portfolio of MBA programmes designed for professionals seeking to accelerate their career and transform their leadership. All EDHEC MBAs (Online MBA, Executive MBA, and Global MBA) are accredited by the AMBA (Association of Masters of Business Administration), a hallmark of excellence that acknowledges our rigorous teaching, the richness of our academic content, and the exceptional value of our student experience.

    The AMBA’s accreditation, awarded to 3% of business schools worldwide, attests to the demanding standards and selectivity of our programmes. This commitment to excellence is also reflected in the MBA programme rankings: the Executive MBA is ranked in the Top 30 globally by the Financial Times (2023 ranking) and #1 for Alumni Satisfaction. The Global MBA is ranked 4th worldwide according to ESG’s criterias by the Financial Times (2024 ranking). Each EDHEC MBA differs mainly in its learning modality and offered flexibility, its duration, or its prerequisites, and adapting to the different needs and professional goals of each participant.

    What’s the difference between an online certificate and one attended in person?

    Both delivery methods ensure the same level of academic excellence and personalised support. An EDHEC Online Master of Science offers the same high-quality knowledge and skills to their participants as the traditional on-campus programmes.

    While on-campus programmes are delivered through in-person classes, online programmes leverage advanced digital platforms to reach learners globally.

    Online programmes use two different formats: asynchronous and synchronous learning. Asynchronous classes provide flexibility, allowing students to access course materials and complete assignments at their own pace. Synchronous classes require students to attend virtual sessions at scheduled times, enabling real-time interaction with professors, mentors, coaches, and classmates from anywhere. EDHEC online programs combine both elearning types: synchronous activities with weekly live classes and real-time messaging between participants, professors and coaches, and high-quality asynchronous content by following an approach founded on user experience and gamification.

    You will receive a diploma from EDHEC, a Business School ranked 7th in Europe (Financial Times 2023 ranking) with triple accreditation (EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA). This guarantees the academic excellence of the programmes, the expertise of the teaching staff, as well as its close ties to businesses.
