An E-MBA or Exec PGPM is good if it provides real life application & case studies. The best options globally for E-MBA programs are Harvard, Wharton & Kellogg. These colleges are good as they have DIFFERENTIATED their exec pgmmes from the full time programs. For instance why should a person with work experience still have to undergo all the theory that a fresher has to study.
In India, there are only 3 institutes worth looking at when it comes to exec MBA/PGPM. These are: IIM - Ahmedabad (PGPX program), ISB Hyderabad E-MBA & the IIFM Research oriented Executive PGPM program.
The ISB & IIM pgmmes are full time exec MBA/PGPM programs. The flip side here is that you will need to leave your job to do these and they will cost in the region of Rs. 10-20 Lacs, all told. Check their website for details.
The IIFM Research oriented exec PGPM pgmme is part time and can be done on weekends. This is the only program in India that offers Exec students the opportunity to do super-specialization in any subject of their choice along with an academic guide & industry mentor.
