    Jim,

    Would you mind explaining to me what attributes of a program (besides its name) define the program as "Executive"? I've always wondered about this. For MBA programs I assumed these programs were for people who were "Executives" (i.e. upper or senior management.) Are there other defining attributes?

    Thanks

    Jo-Anne,

    Focus is usually on "managment" vs. "hands-on" topic skills, ususally quite expensive - the tab is picked up by the company/organization.

    Jim,
    If keeping the "NSA" schools in scope, you might want to try U. of Dallas

    Note the masters of mgmt is for those who already have an MBA.

    This program has more of a management slant, as it is from the ... well you guessed it, school of mgmt.

    Their courses are offered either online or on campus.
