McGill Online Mini-MBA

The Executive Development Course (EDC) is open to managers of all experience levels, and each class includes participants from a wide range of professional backgrounds, including engineering, project management, human resources, operations, sales, and more.

If you’d like to enroll in the Advanced Management Course (AMC), we suggest you complete Cycle I or have at least 10 years of managerial experience and be reasonably comfortable reading a financial statement.

Before taking the Integrated Management Thinking Course (IMT), you will ideally have completed Cycle II or have at least 15 years of management experience. There’s no need to have a business degree to enroll, and many participants find our Mini-MBA programs are excellent refresher courses to take several years after earning their degree.

• Flexible Format; (120 min. modules; total of 6-8 hours per week); content is time released and stretched out over time to allow for application and transfer of new skills, tools and frameworks for best outcome.
• Action-Learning Approach; Content, activities and experiences are relevant and immediately applicable to your day-to-day back at work.
• Enriched Curriculum; new multimedia content created and curated to align with different learning styles.
• Access to Alumni Network; the program fosters connection and engagement with a global peer community and program alumni.

Emphasis is placed on helping you reach your peak of excellence, gain confidence and accelerate your career goals. That’s why even MBA grads take the program to refresh and update their knowledge base, and specialized managers take it to broaden their expertise. Executives use our programs to develop strategic management skills and network with exceptional peers from a variety of industries.

You’ll be provided with a selection of cases to read before each course, and you are encouraged to think about and bring along any personal goals, questions, challenges, and objectives you may have. Remember: this is your learning experience and our goal is to ensure it’s relevant to your career.
