Frequently Asked Questions

How is The Jack Welch Management Institute different?

In two ways: relevance and rigor.

Several years ago, when Jack Welch decided to make business education his living legacy, it was because he deeply believe companies and careers can only thrive in an environment of continuous learning.

Learning that is infused with both cutting-edge concepts and immediately applicable skills and tools.

That's why, in both its lauded Executive MBA and its fast-paced Certificate Programs, The Jack Welch Management Institute is focused on the delivery of engaging lectures and case studies, contemporary videos, and powerful learning exercises that are all about empowering organizational and personal growth.

Whether their curriculum is a six week certificate on leadership or the two-year MBA, JWMI graduates are learning — and applying their learning — from the day they enroll.

How involved is Jack Welch?

Very. Jack Welch speaks regularly to JWMI students by video about current business events and common managerial challenges. He also meets frequently with the Institute's leadership team to discuss matters of curriculum and strategic differentiation.

Where do the teachers at The Jack Welch Management Institute come from?

All Jack Welch Management Institute faculty hold MBAs, PhDs, or both, and all undergo a training program in Jack Welch's management philosophy and JWMI's unique educational pedagogy.

How long does the MBA take?

The beauty of an online MBA is its scheduling flexibility, especially for working professionals. If a student takes two courses at a time, the Jack Welch MBA can be completed in as little as 18 months. There are twelve required courses. Courses commence every 11 weeks, and take approximately 6-10 hours of work per week.

How about the length of the certificate programs?

The JWMI certificate programs vary in length and intensity. Some, such as the laser-focused "Becoming a Leader" course, are as short as six weeks, requiring about sixteen hours of study. Others, such as the "Creating a Winning Strategy" program, require a more demanding commitment of study time, and involve team exercises. Our belief is that we offer a certificate program tailored to managers at virtually any stage of their career.
