Oxford Global CEO programme:
Leadership and Strategy in an Era of Globalisation
(run in partnership with Oxford Educational Dynamics)
Oxford Educational Dynamic’s strategic goal is to provide high quality specialised continuing professional development programs in an environment that has a tradition of excellence in education. The realization of this goal has been made possible through OED’s historical links with both Oxford and Cambridge Universities, their colleges and departments, enduring relationships with senior academics from these and other first class international universities and excellent government, industry and sector relationships.
Our first Oxford based continuing professional development program took place in July 2003, but we have been working in this sector since 1996. To date, we have welcomed groups from the United States, Japan, The Peoples’ Republic of China, The Russian Federation as well as various European Union member states. By 2010 we will welcome groups from both India and the Middle East. We run programs in Oxford, Cambridge and London. From 2010 OED will lead a group of business persons to China and India and this represents an exciting step in the further global orientation of the company.
OED provides a tailor-made program, lasting from between one - to - four weeks, depending on our client’s requirements, specifically but not exclusively focusing on the provision of management, leadership and or public policy. The programs are designed to provide a better understanding of those complex factors shaping the contemporary global economy and the international and national political environments. The program’s subject matter is delivered by Oxbridge or international renowned academics in conjunction with recognized experts from research centers, government and business. Past industry speakers and practitioners have been drawn from Booze Allen Hamilton, Odgers Ray and Berndtson, the Confederation of British Industry, Electronic Data Systems, The Financial Services Authority, The Mitsui Corporation, NCR, The European Commission, BDO, Westhouse securities, HSBC, Price Waterhouse Coopers, Feagre and Benson to name a few.

Britain leads the world in offering a comprehensive and diverse range of professional qualifications covering a wide range of academic, technical and vocational disciplines. An individual’s professional qualification speaks of specialist knowledge, expertise and professional networks. Obtaining a professional qualification can be seen as an addition to undergraduate and graduate qualifications or indeed as an alternative, which can often be undertaken in a flexible learning format whilst at University or in employment.The principal function of Qualifying Professional Associations is to examine and qualify persons who wish to become practitioners in the field with which they are concerned. Membership is divided in grades, usually classified as ‘corporate’ and ‘non-corporate’. Non-corporate members are those not yet admitted to full membership, mainly students; they are divided from corporate membership by barriers of age and levels of responsibility and experience. The principal requirement for admission for membership is the knowledge and ability to pass the association’s examinations.
What does 'Chartered' mean?
In the UK, a Chartered professional association is one that has received the Royal Charter from Her Majesty the Queen at the Privy Council. Chartered qualifications are prestigious and well respected all over the world. Charters are granted to selected organisations which serve the public good, in recognition of their pre-eminence, stability and permanence. The Chartered Management Institute is an example of a Chartered professional association.
After qualifying
Once professionally qualified there is a need to keep abreast of developments in the profession and in industry. Short Continuing Professional Education (CPE) programmes are offered all over the world either through the Professional Institute or through other training providers. Each Institute as part of its membership benefits package provides a lot of excellent, current and industry specific material on its website and publishes a monthly or quarterly journal to keep members up-to-date on new developments, analysis and events.Becoming a professional brings with it a powerful and reliable network that will help you in career planning, mentoring, personal and business development.
How can we help?
British Professional Education provides a free counselling service to guide you to which Management profession is right for you and the route that you need to take to qualifying for membership.
Please email Qualify@profed.co.uk for further information.From January 2011 BPE will be offering a range of High Impact Professional Training Programmes using its virtual learning platform for both individual students and corporate clients.
