Description:The Executive MBA (EMBA) program is an intensive, 22-month program. Classes are delivered face-to-face at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. It is designed for senior-level managers who wish to enhance their organization's value in a climate of increased complexity and uncertainty in competitive environments. Critical thinking skills are essential for making decisions at a senior level. The EMBA gives you these skills which will enable you to accelerate your career, whether your goal is a senior executive of a large corporation, to start your own company, or to change your career. Not only will you learn these essential skills, but you will also learn about yourself: your strengths, weaknesses, and how you interact with others.
