From your own live issue to a faculty-reviewed plan.
Malaysian owners, directors and senior managers carry decisions the rest of the business is waiting on. Across 6 months, the applied business project takes one of those decisions — a pricing call, a succession question, an operating issue in your own responsibility — from problem to a written plan with decisions, actions, owners and measures, reviewed by faculty, while you continue in your role. The Executive MBA on Future Ready Business Leadership is awarded and endorsed by CMI. It is a six-month, non-academic professional development programme, not an MQA-accredited academic degree or a regulated qualification. The certificate documents completion of management and leadership development recognised against CMI's Professional Standard and can be listed on a professional profile. It does not guarantee promotion, employment, salary progression or any other career outcome.
You complete 6 training days across 3 scheduled sessions, one-to-one coaching and the applied project, while you keep working. Chartered Manager is a separate optional CMI route, decided by CMI, and is not included in the programme or its published fee.
RM10,000.00 standard fee. Scholarships are limited and awarded on a selective basis to eligible Malaysian applicants, following individual assessment and written approval. Any award and resulting participant fee are confirmed individually in writing. An HRD Corp-registered Malaysian employer submits the grant application in e-TRiS before training. HRD Corp determines eligibility and the approved amount under its Allowable Cost Matrix; funding cannot exceed the employer's available levy balance.
The fee, the funding route and the schedule, confirmed in writing.
Malaysian scholarship eligibility, an employer-led HRD Corp process and English or Mandarin cohort schedules sit alongside the standard fee, each confirmed individually in writing.
The employer—not the participant—applies for the grant. HRD Corp—not the programme provider—decides approval and the approved amount. See employer-led HRD Corp funding.

The Executive MBA on Future Ready Business Leadership is awarded and endorsed by CMI. Successful participants are awarded a CMI Certificate of Recognition. It is non-academic, not an MQA-accredited academic degree or a regulated qualification.

It does not guarantee promotion, employment, salary progression or any other career outcome. Eligible Malaysian employers may apply for HRD Corp funding before training; HRD Corp decides approval and the approved amount. You can also arrange a programme conversation before deciding.
