UW-Madison Executive Education Programs
Ranked Among World's Best

The School of Business has made the Financial Times' annual list of the world's top executive education providers for the third consecutive year.

In its May 17 business education section, the London-based Times ranked executive education programs throughout the world. UW-Madison was ranked 17 th in the U.S. (32nd in the world) in the publication's overall ranking.

For open enrollment programs, UW-Madison was ranked 17 th among the top providers in the U.S. and 29th in the world. For custom executive education programs, UW-Madison was ranked 19 th among the U.S. schools and 44 th in the world.

The Fluno Center, where most UW-Madison executive education training is held, was ranked first in the world for food and accommodations in custom programs.

Ted Beck, associate dean for executive education and corporate relations, said, “We have been working hard to deliver quality and value in our traditional public programs and newer upper-level and custom programs. We have been ranked in the top 20 of U.S. schools in all three categories for the third year, which speaks to our growing success in these areas.”
