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:
The programme is based on an alternation of theoretical and practical sequences where each theme will be the subject of an exchange in class.
The diversity of profiles in each class plays an important role in encouraging the sharing of experience.
The class sizes are between 20 and 25 participants across all of our sites (Nantes or Algiers) which allows for significant interaction between participants and faculty members.
