Course length 4 WEEKS Class times FEBRUARY, JULY, OCTOBER

Description The AMP program brings together 100 senior executives (ranging from Senior VPs to CEOs) having major business unit responsabilities and coming from about 30 to 35 countries around the world.

The IEP fills in the gaps in cross-cultural knowledge and looks at how given issues impact cross functions and cultural interfaces. The newly launched modular version of the IEP -- 3 weeks in Fontainebleau/3 weeks in Singapore -- adds on a wider cross-cultural experience and provides an Extranet groupware tool in between the two modules.

Full course title AVIRA (AWARENESS, VISION, RESPONSIBILITY, ACTION) Type of course TOP MANAGEMENT
Course length 1 WEEK Class times JANUARY, JUNE, SEPTEMBER, DECEMBER

Description AVIRA has been specifically designed for top executives (CEOs, COOs and Board members).

Course length 1 WEEK Class times JANUARY, MARCH, MAY

Description COL is a modular program designed to help top executives (just below board level) understand how non-rational behavior drives important business decisions and how they can improve their leadership.

Full course title AIMS (ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL MARKETING STRATEGY) Type of course MARKETING
Course length 2 WEEKS Class times JANUARY, JUNE

Description AIMS is designed for experienced business-to-business marketing and senior executives. The objectives of AIMS are to enhance skills in formulating and implementing industrial marketing strategies.

Full course title CFSGM (CORPORATE FINANCIAL STRATEGY IN GLOBAL MARKETS) Type of course FINANCE
Course length 2 WEEKS Class times APRIL

Description CFSGM has been recently redesigned to focus this advanced finance program towards value measurement and value creation. CFSGM participants are executives who already have financial management training but wish to improve these skills and update their knowledge of the latest development in corporate finance.

Full course title SIMA (STRATEGIC ISSUES IN MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS) Type of course STRATEGY
Course length 1 WEEK Class times MARCH, NOVEMBER

Description Mergers and acquisitions are transforming the world of the modern corporation, but they continue to attract controversy about the benefits versus the risks involved. Given the pressures and secrecy surrounding the acquisition, financial and legal considerations often crowd out more complex issues concerning the decision-making and the integration processes. This program combines a strategic and organizational perspective on how to make acquisitions work. It is based on long-term international research by the faculty into the problems of acquisition decision-making and integration, and how experienced acquirers overcome those problems.

Full course title MME (MANAGING MULTINATIONAL ENTERPRISES) Type of course STRATEGY
Course length 1.6 WEEK Class times MAY

Description Participants from a broad range of backgrounds are encouraged to reflect in small groups on issues of concern to themselves, to share experiences, and to draw lessons from the "best" existing within companies.

Full course title MSIB (MANAGERIAL SKILLS FOR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS) Type of course ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT
Course length 2 WEEKS Class times AUGUST

Description In order to succeed today, many corporations are having to depend increasingly on: 1) the capacity to manage effective organisational processes across national boundaries; 2) the capabilities in building global team-work in a network of individual corporate units; 3) the international development of their human resources; 4) managers operating, cooperating and competing effectively across many different cultures. To respond to these needs, INSEAD has developed this program to provide a multi-cultural learning experience.

Full course title YMP (YOUNG MANAGERS PROGAMME) Type of course GENERAL MANAGEMENT
Course length 3 WEEKS OR MODULAR VERSION OF 2 + 1 WEEK Class times JANUARY, JUNE, SEPTEMBER

Description The YMP is not only designed for high potential executives selected by their companies to be fast-trackers, but also is an opportunity for bright people to benchmark with others coming from various sectors, backgrounds, and countries and realize the importance of leveraging competencies in a team. The importance of groupwork exercise is particularly relevant in that respect. Sponsor companies and participants chose the YMP to improve participant knowledge in other functional areas and meet other managers with different background and better refine management behavior.

Distance Learning

Distance courses offered or planned INSEAD is currently testing distance learning technologies as part of a program either: 1) at company-specific programs' level for some content-intensive marketing modules or 2) for open-enrollment programs in which INSEAD has developed an Extranet as a networking enabler and a way to maintain communication going between modules and after the program.

Comments To accomodate for increasing demand in Fontainebleau and to respond to its expansion plans in Asia, INSEAD is involved in major building projects:

In Fontainebleau: the school is building four new amphitheatres (of which two will be ready in the year 2000) and respective meeting rooms for groupwork; In Singapore: the school is building three amphitheaters and corresponding meeting rooms for executive education in the new INSEAD campus to be opened in October 2000.

INSEAD is planning to launch at least two new executive education programs per year and expand the number of sessions offered in Asia. A number of these new programs will leverage the global positioning of INSEAD and have one module held in Fontainebleau and one module held in Singapore.
