May 18, 2015 — The Financial Times released its annual rankings of executive education programs today. In this ranking, Goizueta Business School’s Emory Executive Education was the only program in Georgia among the global rankings.

- #7 for the quality of teaching and the extent to which teaching staff worked together to present a coherent program
- #8 for the level of interaction between client and school, the extent to which clients’ ideas were integrated into the program, and the effectiveness of the school in integrating its latest research
- #8 for the relevance of skills gained to the workplace, the ease with which they were implemented, and the extent to which the course encouraged new ways of thinking
- #9 for program design
- #9 for Follow-up
- #10 for the extent to which academic and business expectations were met
