Theseus-EDHEC MBA Programme Director, Professor Emmanuel Metais explains the further developments aimed at increasing the students' job prospects. "Candidates are choosing our MBA with a view to developing their career and we have to provide them with a service that will help them move onwards and upwards. As such we have plans to further develop our relationships with multinational companies which will facilitate the transition to a new career.
As of September 2008, the Theseus-EDHEC MBA will be a part of the EDHEC Executive Business Unit so there will be increased synergies with EDHEC Business School Executive Education activities, as well as the Executive MBA located on our second campus in Lille.
Programme content changes include even more importance paid to personal development and coaching and more emphasis placed on entrepreneurship, finance and capital investment where EDHEC Business School's reputation is renowned on an international scale."

Programme developments
Already a much-appreciated course in the MBA curriculum, next year's Global Business Module will include new country visits while other novel modules will include the visits of atypical organisations to study different management styles in action.

As an active introduction to the Theseus-EDHEC MBA programme, the expertise of the renowned Dale Carnegie Training has been called upon to boost next year's participants' skills set in a fast moving intensive training course. This course incorporates coaching in managerial skills such as time management and high-impact presentations which will then serve them throughout the rest of the programme.

With all these changes forecast for next year's intake, the idea of New Visions, New Ambitions looks set to continue. Admissions for next year's MBA class are well underway and currently include 9 different nationalities with candidates of an average of 7 years professional experience.
