Program description
Audencia's Executive MBA is a part-time programme that can be taken as a bilingual in Nantes, from 18 to 36 months. The teaching approach is participatory and experiential, i.e. focused on practical application and skills development. A wide range of varied learning methods are used: e-learning, case studies, role-playing, simulation, project communities, etc.
The lessons are structured according to the flipped classroom concept:
- Preliminary reading and prior understanding of concepts, via the virtual campus or reference books.
- Review of the fundamental concepts by the lecturer, work on real case studies of companies from a wide variety of sectors, discussions with the participants to provide them with new insights.
- The programme is based on an alternation of theoretical and practical sequences where each theme will be the subject of an exchange in class.
