Regional anchoring is a central component of NEOMA BS: in the Global EMBA, it is embodied in the seminars devoted to the Champagne-Ardenne and Normandy regions, allowing participants to discover promising sectors of activity (company tours, case studies, etc.).
For example, participants meet with decision makers from the luxury sector (prestigious champagne houses) to discuss circular economics or discover the most successful entrepreneurial stories in Normandy (Ferrero, etc.).
Joining a powerful, supportive network
The alumni network of NEOMA Business School includes 68,700 graduates in France ans 127 countries. NEOMA Alumni is the 4th largest alumni network among French Business Schools.
Evaluation procedures
The programme is recognised through a dual validation:
- Ongoing assessment: evaluations conducted throughout the length of the programme in the form of individual or collective reports to be submitted
- Capstone Project: submission of a written document and an oral defense before a jury made up of 2 tutors
At the end of the programme and after a validation of 90 ECTS credits, the level-7 Senior Executive title is awarded to participants. If some modules were not validated and thus no credits were earned, the programme participant can redo the evaluation during a period set up for this purpose.
Middle East and Asia Tracks
The NEOMA Global Executive MBA programme is also available in Asia and the Middle East: in China, in the city of Shanghai, an international financial centre and in Tehran, Iran, renowned for its culture and excellent higher education.
We offer these tracks to executive and middle managers and to local entrepreneurs who want to develop executive manager skills.
Just like the programme in Paris, the GEMBA tracks taught in China and Iran aim to provide participants with strategic vision for executive leadership in a digital age faced with new societal issues.
Moreover, meetings with executives as well as visits to renowned companies are organised so the participants can have an in-depth look at the special features of the local ecosystems.
Those participating in the China and Iran tracks can attend modules in the France track and thus meet the participants in the Paris programme.
