Overview
Our executive education courses transform the way you think about learning. We have worked with some of New Zealand's leading businesses and business people to expand their leadership and specialist knowledge.
The MBA (Master of Business Administration) supports your growth from operating roles into management, or to expand from a narrow professional scope into performing broader management roles. With at least three years of work experience, you can complete this MBA either full-time within 12 months or fully online from 18 months to five years. The MBA allows flexibility to swap back and forth between both modes of study, for maximum convenience.
The EMBA (Executive Master of Business Administration) is best for you when you have at least three years of management experience, with at least seven years of work experience overall, and want to push into leadership positions within New Zealand or globally

“The MBA for me wasn’t so much about the theory but the overall journey. I gained a network of like minded business people, a space to generate ideas and be challenged, and a platform of general business knowledge to build and grow in my leadership career.”
“Since starting the MBA I have been promoted twice and have instituted meaningful change within my teams and the greater business.”
“An MBA gives you a seat at the table with management and equips you with the confidence to initiate all kinds of discussions!”
