MBA Programme Rating 2020

11 grudnia 2020 : market research

On Friday, December 4, 2020 Stowarzyszenie Edukacji Menedzerskiej FORUM (the Association of Management Education SEM FORUM) announced the results of MBA SEM FORUM 2020 Programme Rating – the longest running MBA programme rating system in Poland. In Master Class there are six MBA programmes run by four business schools. 

The SEM FORUM MBA Programme Rating, where the key programme components are assessed in accordance with the international standards, classifies the programmes into five classes: Master, Professional Plus, Professional, Standard and Promising. The rating is carried out by the Team of Experts who represent the academic community. Then the evaluation is verified by the Rating Committee composed of some representatives of business environment. It is worth mentioning that PKN ORLEN is a business partner of the rating. This year the highest rated MBA programmes, i.e. classified in the Master Class, (the institution running the programme in alphabetical order) are as follows: International Executive MBA – conducted by Gdanska Fundacja Ksztalcenia Menedzerów (Gdansk Foundation for Management Development), Executive Master of Business Administration, International Master of Business Administration, European Multicultural Integrated Management Program, MBA KSB + Master Program – by Krakowska Szkola Biznesu Uniwersytetu Ekonomicznego in Krakow (Cracow Business School CUE (Cracow University of Economics)), Executive MBA – by Business School of the Warsaw University of Technology and Canadian Executive MBA – by Warsaw School of Economics and Universite du Quebec a Montreal. 28 MBA programmes in total run by Polish business schools were included in the rating.

– The aim of the rating is to promote high quality standards in management education. MBA programmes have tore expected to meet the highest standards and values expected by their stakeholders: students, their employers as well as national and international accreditation institutions. 30 criteria relating to the scope, teaching staff, participants, methodology and programme development strategy are evaluated. The awarded programmes represent the highest substantive academin and practical standards, have strong ties with business community, and cooperate with renowned international partners. Participation in the SEM FORUM MBA Programme Rating strengthens any MBA programme on the domestic and foreign management education markets – says Andrzej Popadiuk, President of the Management Board of SEM FORUM.

Participation in the rating is voluntary and free of charge. Thanks to this, all universities and business schools can take part in it regardless of their economic status. Being subject to any expert evaluation is a motivating factor for the institutions running MBA programmes to constantly improve the quality of management education offered. The rating provides reliable feedback about the current level of the programmes for current and future students and future candidates, as well as for companies planning to delegate their managers to attend MBA programme. 

–  The group of beneficiaries of the Rating does not include only business schools and MBA students. It is worth taking a broader look. Raising the quality of management education means higher qualifications, better management and leadership effectiveness, as well as greater awareness of the importance of social mission, sustainable development and environmental responsibility among the staff. All these factors increase the effectiveness and competitiveness of Polish companies on global markets – emphasises Andrzej Popadiuk.

The Association of Management Education SEM FORUM is an organization founded and managed by the leading Polish business schools. The purpose of SEM FORUM is to promote the quality of management education in Poland, foster cooperation between Polish business schools and strengthen the position of Polish education in the international environment. It collaborates, among others, with: EFMD - European Foundation for Management Development, EQUAL - European Quality Link, CEEMAN - International Association of Management Development in Dynamic Societies and Star Alliance - Alliance for Management Development in Rising Economies.

The results of the ranking were presented during the SEM FORUM conference which took place on December 4, 2020. PKN ORLEN, MBA Portal and Gazeta Finansowa were the business partner of the conference, the MBA Rating and the SEM FORUM.
