The Top EMBA Programs in Canada Revealed in Annual Study

The University of Western Ontario and the University of Toronto secure top spots

Ivy Exec’s fourth annual EMBA rankings reveal top-ranked programs in Canada highlighting notable program strengths in areas like career advancement, global experience and more. The Ivey Executive MBA along with the Rotman One-Year MBA occupy top spots in the 2019 Best Executive MBA Programs – Canada rankings. 226 global EMBA programs were selected in this study of over one million executive members of the Ivy Exec community.

The Top Five Executive MBA Programs in Canada are:

  1. Ivey Executive MBA, University of Western Ontario
  2. Rottman One-Year Executive MBA, University of Toronto
  3. Queen’s Executive MBA, Queen’s University
  4. John Molson Executive MBA, Concordia University
  5. SFU Executive MBA, Simon Fraser University

The rankings are the result of a robust study reflecting accomplished professionals as follows: an impressive 55 percent held 20-plus years of work experience. In the remaining three segments, 22 percent had 15-20 years’ experience, 15 percent had 11-15 and lastly, eight percent had 7-10 years’ professional experience. The study intentionally excluded participants with less than seven years of work experience and entry-level titles. The Executive MBA programs were evaluated based on five key factors identified by the responded pool of accomplished professionals to determine the best EMBA programs in the Canada region.
