Like MBA degrees, EMBA degrees originate from the Anglo-Saxon world, where they have a long tradition and are correspondingly well known. In many industries, an MBA or EMBA degree is considered a necessary prerequisite for a long-term career in top management. And an EMBA is particularly important in international corporations or companies with English-speaking management due to its worldwide reputation.
In Switzerland, EMBA courses often enjoy double recognition. As degrees from federally accredited universities, they are regarded as postgraduate courses at the highest level of education. And internationally, they are recognized through the accreditation of the course by American, English or European accreditation agencies.
