LONDON, August 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
London School of
Business and Finance (LSBF) and LEORON Institute announced a
new partnership in international professional development
today.
The agreement will see LSBF Executive Education and premium
corporate training provider LEORON working together to deliver
professional courses in the Middle
East. The agreement covers the Gulf Cooperation Council
(GCC) region, which includes Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman,
Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
The MiniMBA and the Executive Certificate in HR and Business
Strategy will be the first programmes to be covered by the
collaboration. The two courses, currently part of LEORON's
portfolio, will be entirely delivered by LSBF Executive Education's
lecturers.
The five-day programmes are due to start later this year,
capitalizing on the current market needs and the increasing number
of GCC professionals seeking further knowledge. LSBF Executive
Education will be the awarding body, with LEORON's consolidated
network providing the potential to reach employees in the
region.
With offices in cities such as Dubai, Abu
Dhabi, Riyadh, Doha, and Kuwait
City, LEORON works with key academic and professional
bodies, as well as training institutes, to deliver more than 200
courses globally, covering more than 15 industries.
"This agreement lays a fruitful terrain for exposing our
portfolio to an ever-growing base of aspiring business
professionals in the region. The Executive Certificate in HR and
Business Strategy is a joint-certified course, whilst the MiniMBA,
a five-day leadership & management masterclass, is a unique
distillation of the skills that need to be acquired to be
considered successful in modern business," said Val Jusufi, Managing Director at LEORON
Institute.
She added: "We've kick-started our agreement with the launch of
the Executive Certificate in HR and Business Strategy course,
certified by LEORON, KHDA, and LSBF. Furthermore, the ECHRBS now
requires for attendees to pass LSBF's exam, which adds another
level of safeguarding knowledge."
LSBF Executive Education offers a comprehensive portfolio of
programmes, varying in length from five days to 12 weeks - all of
which are accredited by the British Accreditation Council
(BAC).
Dessy Ohanians, Managing Director
of LSBF Executive Education, believes the recent collaboration has
the capacity to expand the school's teaching methods, increasing
its ability to adjust to different environments and devise more
result-focused solutions for learners.
"Working closely with LEORON, we believe our combined strengths
as established professional development training providers and
market specialists will help to endow participants with the skills
necessary to learn about, understand, and address the latest
business trends," she said.
"At LSBF, we are committed to delivering executive education of
the highest quality to professionals, executives, and managers
across the world. This collaboration enables us to expand our
global executive education footprint."
