For the second year running, prestigious Latin American business magazine, Ámerica Economía has ranked ESADE Business School number ten in the world for Executive Education in Latin America. ESADE is one of only three schools founded outside of the region to make the top ten.

ESADE has shown a firm commitment to the region, with the opening of their campus in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2004 and the setting up of a Global Center in São Paulo, Brazil earlier this year. ESADE Buenos Aires offers a range of executive education programmes, encompassing both open and in-company.

In this latest evaluation ESADE is ranked number one in terms of clients. This criteria particularly considers the size and importance of schools’ Latin American clients and the loyalty of these clients. At a time when competition in executive education is fierce, this result highlights the quality of ESADE’s programmes.

Corporate Universities also form an important part of ESADE’s presence in Latin America. The school, whose clients include Telefónica, Santander and Repsol YPF works closely with these companies to design programmes which are perfectly integrated into their strategy and are taught around the world, particularly in Latin America. ESADE hosts an annual conference on Corporate Universities and is one of the few business schools to have fully embraced this change in direction in executive education.

“In open and custom programmes we work hard to meet clients’ expectations, designing courses that fit their needs and are flexible enough to adapt to new realities as they emerge.” Comments Alejandro Bernhardt, Director of ESADE’s Buenos Aires campus. ESADE’s new range of month-long programmes, “Executive Education for Times of Crisis” is an example of this. Participants choose whether to focus on Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Human Resources or Creativity and Innovation.

Other programmes offered by ESADE in Latin America include ESADE’s well reputed Global Executive MBA (GEMBA) program, run in conjunction with Georgetown University, which holds one of its six two-week modules in Argentina and Brazil and ESADE’s Advanced Management Programme offered in Buenos Aires, Campinas, Curitiba and Montevideo. ESADE also boasts an impressive international network and has alumni chapters in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, and Venezuela.
