HEC Montréal to offer its Specialized Graduate Diploma in Management at the MDI-Business School

January 27, 2016

HEC Montréal is stepping up its collaboration with the MDI-Business School in Algeria by adding a hybrid-format Specialized Graduate Diploma in Management (combining classroom and distance learning) and signing an agreement for a second cohort of BBA 2+2* students. The new diploma is to be launched in May 2016.

“MDI has been an important, solid partner since 2013, and we had jointly developed and offered a number of training programs, including our cornerstone management program on MBA essentials, which has attracted more than 70 students since it was launched,” says Hassan Taghvaï, Director of International Executive Education at HEC Montréal. “We added the BBA 2+2 in fall 2014, and we’ll be receiving the first cohort at HEC Montréal this coming fall. We are very proud of this collaboration, which benefits both institutions.”

Isabelle Roy, Canadian Ambassador to Algeria, Brahim Benabdeslem, Dean of the MDI-Business School, Michel Patry, HEC Montréal Director, and a number of Algerian business leaders attended the signing ceremony in December.

*First two years at the MDI-Business School, and second two at HEC Montréal.
