Changing face of business school education

Recently I came across a snippet which stated how the global leaders of corporates and even the corporation itself have started feeling the urge to get back to B-School and at same time, are unwiling to scarifice their time and effort in the conventional MBA program which consumes about 2 years and where one needs to pay in hefty sum.

Moreover the idea of detaching from the cubicle for more than 16 months seems to create more distance between the executive and the office, and so is the concerns for the organisation. This seems to erode the very principle on which MBA program was sought by candidates.

Thank fully the business schools and corporate world have awaken and started taking actions in this regard. Short term MBA courses ( example 1 year full time program in INSEAD, TAMU, Rotman, MIT ) are the answers to the question poised above.

We have recently witnessed

a) more tie ups with business schools example ISB with kellogs

b) extension of B schools as an example INSEAD had opened up in singapore

c) more collaboration of corporates with business schools.

On the other side admission to these programs would surely be based on work exp, the institute would not spare efforts to help a fresher assimilate the discourses in class room and beyond. The scene in the class room would be no different from board room only that people who might have been business foes earlier sit down and solve a case study together. A fresher or less experienced would just get lost in the heavy discussions.
