Executive Education
Johnson has two off-campus Executive MBA programs:
- Cornell Executive MBA
- Cornell-Queen's Executive MBA
Established in 1999, the Cornell Executive MBA Program is based in Palisades, New York, approximately 15 miles north of Manhattan. This program uses a traditional classroom setting at the IBM Executive Education Center. Classes are held every other weekend, all day Saturday and Sunday morning, in addition to four residence sessions on the Cornell University campus, and the program duration is 22 months. For 2010, Johnson's Executive MBA program was ranked #24 worldwide by Financial Times.
In 2005 Johnson launched the Cornell-Queen's Executive MBA program (originally called the Cornell Boardroom Executive MBA program) in partnership with Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. This program organizes participants into teams of 6-8 people in cities across the USA and Canada and links these teams via multi-point, interactive videoconferencing for class sessions. Classes are typically held three Saturdays per month, in addition to three residence sessions on the Cornell and Queen’s University campuses. Graduates earn two MBAs, one from each institution, and the program duration is 16 months. For 2010, Johnson's CQ-EMBA program was ranked #55 worldwide by Financial Times.
In addition to formal education programs, Johnson offers tailored executive education training sessions, both on- and off-campus.
