International MBA for SME Managers

In December 2010 Nyenrode started an MBA program for SME managers in Finland. We have achieved this in good cooperation with Konsulttitoimisto Seppo Hoffrén Oy Consultancy, a well-known training and consultancy firm. With the financial help of the European Social Fund and the Finnish State, we enable SME executives from the Pori and Kuopio regions to develop themselves through a solid and extensive Nyenrode MBA program.
 
With a total of 9 modules, based on management themes, such as Change Management, Strategy, Risk & Finance and Leadership, you work on your knowledge and leadership skills during a period of about three and a half years, in order to prepare yourself for a higher management position or to start your own company. The MBA is characterized by special attention for Small and Medium Sized enterprises.
 
The length of the program (about 3 years)  is such that it makes a good combination with your business and private life with regard to the required work load. Additionally, it gives you the opportunity to integrate the gained knowledge into your work. Therefore it is an ideal study for those who want to develop themselves without giving up too much.
 
Although the program will mainly take place in Finland, you can expect the typical Nyenrode experience: an practical approach based on solid academic facts and attention for leadership skills throughout the program. Nyenrode teachers are full responsible for the courses and execute the program together with local, experienced teachers and guest speakers. 
 
A new group is planned for 2013-2015 in the Helsinki region.
