Executive Post Graduate Diploma in Management

Executive PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management) for working professionals is a premier program specifically curated for individuals who are already employed or have worked in the past, and wish to enhance their leadership and management skills in a desired role without taking a break from their existing job. The weekend management program is offered in two modes - Hybrid and On-campus.

EPGDM and EMBA courses are MBA-equivalent advanced management programs curated for working profesionals who are willing to transform or transition their careers in an accelerated manner. This program is more industry-focused, and may have more flexibility in designing their curriculum, as compared to an Executive MBA. Ultimately, the choice between the two depends on personal career goals, and the institution from where you are planning to pursue the program. If you are a working professional looking to build cross-functional and techno-manegerial leadership skills, then Alliance University's EPGDM - a program with a legacy of 49 batches and 6500+ exceptional alumni across the globe, may be the right fit for you.
