According to the Financial Times, Ivey is Canada’s top provider for executive education programming. 

Driven by leading edge offerings developed and delivered by The Ivey Academy, the Financial Times Executive Education rankings placed Ivey number one in Canada once again for both Custom and Open programs.

For Custom programs, Ivey placed first in Canada in 12 of the 14 categories measured by the Financial Times. This represents programs Ivey faculty members have designed specifically for corporate clients. Only one other school in North America placed higher than Ivey for Custom programming.

When it comes to Open enrollment, or programming designed for professionals to tackle a specific topic, Ivey ranked top among Canadian providers for Preparation, Course Design, Teaching Methods & Materials, Faculty quality, Follow-up, Aims Achieved and Faculty Diversity.

"The Financial Times Executive Education rankings reflect a truly global landscape for business education and demonstrate how Ivey is driving impact and innovation on the world stage,” said Bryan Benjamin, Executive Director, The Ivey Academy. “We're proud to represent Canada and take it as a responsibility to continue building the future of lifelong learning.”

Benjamin continues, “It's also worth noting key metrics are drawn from direct feedback of our program participants and client partners. Those organizations and leaders are an essential part of making the Ivey experience world class. The Ivey way of learning is special because it builds on the experience and knowledge of all participants to create shared learning – we're grateful to work with a diverse community of incredible leaders from across Canada and around the world."
