Sponsorship and company support
Many Dubai-London Executive MBA students receive either partial or full financial sponsorship from their employers and all students must have their employer's full support in terms of the time commitment to attend classes.
Securing this kind of commitment usually involves drawing up a detailed business case outlining your reasons for wanting to undertake the Dubai-London Executive MBA and the benefits that you feel it will bring to yourself and to the company.
