Hanken's Executive MBA secures continued international top accreditation

Hanken School of Economics’ Executive MBA programme has been granted continued accreditation by the Association of MBAs (AMBA) for the next five years. Hanken has held the AMBA accreditation since 2008.

Hanken’s Executive MBA programme is based on Hanken’s research based expertise, meeting the quality standards expected of a triple accredited business school. With the continuation of its AMBA accreditation, Hanken maintains its position among roughly one per cent of business schools in the world that hold the three most prestigious international accreditations: AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS.

“We are proud of the renewed AMBA accreditation, as it serves as evidence that we uphold the highest quality standards in teaching and learning, while also supporting the career development of our Executive MBA students. I would like to thank both Hanken’s faculty and the other lecturers who have contributed to the high quality content, as well as Hanken & SSE, who is responsible for delivering the programme,” says Hanken’s Rector, Ingmar Björkman.

AMBA’s decision is based on the recommendations of the accreditation panel that visited the school in March and met with staff, programme participants, alumni and employers.

“In a time of rapid change, it is essential to offer Executive MBA education based on academic research, combined with practical experience and direct relevance for business leaders and experts. The continued AMBA accreditation confirms that we are succeeding in exactly this – equipping leaders and organisations with knowledge and perspectives that make a real difference in a changing world”, says Henrich Nyman, growth area director at Hanken & SSE Executive Education.

The Hanken Executive MBA is a two year, part time programme taught in English, with modules covering areas such as strategic leadership, finance and AI, sustainability and governance, and leadership and personal development. The next programme begins in October.
