Members, students, business representatives, journalists, and others turn to the council for information about Executive MBA Programs. As a result of its Program Survey, the council can share an overview of Executive MBA Programs and monitor trends. Member programs receive data that helps them compare their efforts against peers, make improvements, and measure the success of those improvements.

Yes, the information that programs provide remains confidential. The council only presents aggregate information.

EMBAC offers three types of reports: standard, peer, and regional. You will receive the standard report free as a benefit of your membership and participation in the Program Survey.

The standard report displays trended aggregate data of all participating schools along with segmentation by program cost, North American programs compared to non-North American programs, and public versus private programs. The standard and regional reports do not display individual program data.

The peer report allows you to select six programs as a peer composite group for benchmarking to your program. You can choose different peers for each program. The peer report displays your program-specific data compared to the peer composite. Your program-specific data will never be displayed to other members – only composite (aggregated) data are displayed to protect confidentiality.

The regional report includes all questions in the survey segmented by the following regions:
Asia
Canada
Europe
Middle East + Africa
Latin America
United States
Midwest U.S.
Northeast U.S.
Southeast U.S.
Southwest U.S.
Western U.S.
All Programs

Each year, the council sends a reminder to the primary contacts of member programs. The reminder asks programs to complete the membership renewal process and update their Program Survey data by the deadline in the reminder. Member schools can update their directory information anytime during the year through their school portal.
