Executive Education

13 certifying programs with more than 1.000 participants per year

Since the beginning of the 1990s, real estate and finance constitute the core of the non-degree executive education programmes at EBS Business School. In 2007, the activities were rebundled into the EBS Executive Education GmbH, thus facilitating synergies across Finance and Real Estate by centralizing the programme administration. At this time, the EBS Business School opened the EBS Executive Education Center at the location Altes Rathaus in Winkel. Run by the executive director Ralf Langendörfer, the EBS Executive Education today contributes nearly one third to the financial volume of the European Business School.

Out of the FARE Department, in particular the PFI Private Finance Institute and the REMI Real Estate Management Institute significantly contribute to the success of the EBS Executive Education. Together, in 2011 they coordinated more than 747 participants during more than 491 programme days and more than 8046 participant days. They generated revenues of more than € 2.48 Mio. By aligning and transforming its non-degree executive programmes with regard to the ECTS-system, the EBS Executive Education is about to create a new executive education master degree programme that offers new and attractive career options with a distinctive industry focus.

In their research areas, both institutes have established a leading position in Germany. With a broad variety of continuing education programmes as well as tailor-made corporate programmes, they cover a broad range of topics and deliver highest quality education for industry professionals.

Course offerings of open enrolment certificate programmes cover a wide variety of topics.
Some programmes are conducted in cooperation with renowned partners, some are accredited, by the RICS for example, or dispose participants for certification such as the Certified Financial Planner (CFP).
