These programmes have
a duration of 12 to 15 months. The subjects that are generally covered in a
two-year course are also covered in these courses. Many of these programmes are
tailor made for working professionals who have gained valuable experience and
are now looking to acquire management skills for faster progress in their
careers. The Indian School of Business (ISB), Hyderabad, IIM-Ahmedabad and
Great Lakes Institute of Management (GLIM), Chennai, are some examples of such
institutes.
The top one-year
programmes in the country are:
IIM Ahmedabad – PGP for Executives
IIM Bangalore - EPGP
ISB – PGP in Management
GLIM
– PGP in Management
SPJIMR – Global MBA Programme
XLRI – General Management Programme
These one-year
programmes are meant for working executives who have at least two years of work
experience. Though the fee charged is on the higher side (anywhere between
Rs.8-20 lakh), the fact that the student saves on a year and can be gainfully
employed, is bound to offset such high programme fee. In any case, these
institutes have ties with financial institutions to provide loans and also have
a scholarship scheme in place to help the meritorious students. These
programmes have not been listed in the B-School categorisation as they offer
short-duration programmes for a specific audience; however, each of these
institutes would easily figure amongst the top institutes in the country.
