LBS Open Executive Education in global top three
LBS Open and Custom programmes second and seventh respectively in 2024 Financial Times Executive Education rankings
London Business School (LBS) has been recognised as a leading provider of Executive Education in the Financial Times’ (FT) 2024 Executive Education Open and Custom rankings.
The School placed second (2) in the FT’s Executive Education Open ranking.
LBS’s open programmes were ranked first globally for ‘quality of participants’, a measure that considers both the managerial and academic standards of participants, international diversity and the quality of peer interactions.
Its open programmes were ranked third overall for ‘new skills and learning’ in recognition of the highly-relevant and applicable skills participants gain during their time on LBS Executive Education programmes.
LBS also rose in the FT’s Executive Education Custom ranking to seventh (7) globally.
Its custom programmes were ranked second for ‘new skills & learning’ and fifth overall for ‘aims achieved’.
LBS was one of only five Schools to be ranked in the top 10 of both the FT’s Open and Custom Executive Education rankings.
Helen Kerkentzes, Associate Dean of Executive Education at LBS, expressed her gratitude to all the global organisations and their people who entrust the School with their transformation and growth year after year.
“We are delighted to be recognised by organisations and participants alike for the calibre of the open and custom programmes we design and deliver and the tangible, real-world impact that supports their personal growth and business ambitions,” she said.
“These results also speak to the convening power of the LBS network and the calibre of organisations and participants we attract to Executive Education programmes. We know that a key consideration when choosing an executive education course is the diversity and quality of other participants as people learn as much from hearing from, and interacting, with their peers as they do from our world-class faculty and learning partners. We dedicate ourselves to building diverse cohorts that serve that purpose.”
2024 marks the third year in a row that LBS has improved its position in the FT’s Executive Education Open and Custom rankings.
The School’s Degree and Executive Education programmes rank in the top ten of all key global rankings.
