Executive MBA

Houston EMBA - Sponsorship

Executive MBA candidates are typically recognized by their companies as highly motivated, high-potential achievers. By enrolling in Tulane's EMBA program, these individuals actively prepare for complex management challenges, leadership positions, and career advancement.

Corporate Commitment
Recognizing a manager's contributions to the organization and potential for leadership are key drivers for sponsorship to the EMBA.  To fully develop that potential, both the sponsor and the candidate should be prepared to commit resources and to dedicate time for class attendance.  Employers often assume full or partial responsibility for program costs. Sponsorship of a candidate can range from support for the necessary time away from the workplace to full financial sponsorship.  Hundreds of companies have sponsored students in Tulane's EMBA programs, representing nearly every major organization in the world.

Sponsorship of a candidate in Tulane's Executive MBA program provides:

• a powerful investment in the company's future and a commitment to organizational excellence.
• a vehicle for selecting and training those individuals who are best suited for top management responsibilities.
• revitalization of management through the introduction of innovative techniques, solutions, insights, and strategies to meet new challenges.
• specific analytical tools and methods that are immediately applicable to current problems facing the organization.
• a high potential return on investment resulting from the participant's successful application of learned management techniques and methods.

Self-Sponsored Entrepreneurs
The benefits of the EMBA program are not limited to serving the needs of the large corporation. Actually, many of the same benefits of the EMBA program that enrich large corporations also serve and profit smaller businesses.  A growing number of small business owners, physicians, attorneys, accountants, and self-employed entrepreneurs participate in Tulane's EMBA.  The program offers insights into diverse corporate environments, and provides an excellent grounding in the knowledge and techniques needed for both entrepreneurs and self-employed professionals to succeed.
