Structure
The Global MBA experience is structured around progressive learning processes,
starting with fundamentals of management know-how, followed by the integration of
the different areas in order to gain an overall view of company management and to
see the interrelations between each of them.
Using the Global MBA Portal, participants access the Asynchronous Online Sessions,
conducted Monday through Thursday and Live Interactive Video Sessions conducted
on Saturday, allowing them to participate in Learning & Development Programs from
anywhere in the world.
In addition to providing geographic mobility, the Global MBA Portal introduces
participants to The IE LINC Experience, an international network of peers, participants
and members of the global communities.
The program includes two, one-week residential periods in Madrid which allow
participants to meet classmates and professors as well as take part in management
skills workshops. There are also a number of optional residential sessions in various
cities around the world lasting from 3 to 5 days.
The Global MBA Online at IE Business School provides all the tools for professional
success in international business management and entrepreneurship. It is an
innovative program that bridges the gap between geographical location and
presential learning, maximizing the distance learning experience and preparing
students for the requirements of a dynamic working environment.

“At first I was a bit concerned about how the program would
work, but having seen that it works like companies do today, I
think it is ideal for forward-looking professionals. I know that many companies hold
it in the same esteem as traditional MBAs, or even more. It really is like being in a
classroom. I can see my classmates and professor, and all this from the comfort of my
own home. The discussion forums during the week are amazingly in depth. Students are
less afraid to express themselves than in presential settings. Furthermore classes are
recorded so that we can review sessions at a later time for a deeper understanding.”
