PG Diploma in Management for Working Executives & Entrepreneurs

Updated on: Monday, June 04, 2012

XLRI School of Business & Human Resources, Jamshedpur, announced the launch of ‘Postgraduate Diploma in Management for Working Executives & Entrepreneurs’.

Announcing the launch Fr E Abraham SJ, director of XLRI, said, “Since its inception, XLRI has always been at the forefront to help create a robust management education eco-system for Jharkhand and rest of the country. Lately, we have been receiving quite a few enquiries from interested executives in Jamshedpur-based companies expressing their interest in doing a part-time programme in business management. Therefore, in line with our mission, we have initiated this programme combined with entrepreneurship and experiential learning for individuals in their early or mid-career phase, mostly high-performing employees who are being groomed by their organisation to move into leadership roles.”

He added, “Distinct from most other executive management programmes, it allows the flexibility of rigorous learning whilst working and also enables acquisition of a diploma which is similar to a full-time diploma programme.”

The programme aims to impart the highest quality of management education to the candidates whilst further developing their knowledge in general management. Candidates who have completed three years of Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in any discipline recognised by a university and a minimum of two years of relevant work experience in organisations or as an entrepreneur can apply for this programme.

Applicants for this programme will not have to appear for XAT entrance test; however they will have to appear for a personal interview and assessment test. The first batch of this part-time evening programme will commence from August 2012 at XLRI campus. The fee structure for this programme is Rs 7.5 lakh to be paid in installments as decided by the institute.

The last date for applying to this programme is June 7, 2012. The information about this program can be obtained from the website of the Institute www.xlri.ac.in/evening.
