Client Needs-Relevant Executive Education

Why AMBS work with MEF - riskNZ App in the Classroom
MEF's expertise & domain knowledge in the areas of applied Global Economics, Globalisation/Trade, Financialisation have all been deployed in custom programmes in the AMBS Executive Education offer over the last 20 years, particularly on the China program that has engaged with many (now) world-leading Chinese brands.
The riskNZ App brings real-world data into the ExecEd classroom so that applied learning starts from a base of empirical fact and data. Focusing on data-awareness also helps give a comparative perspective given that the riskNZ datasets are global in nature eg macroeconomic data, Energy demand, Industrial GHG emissions. Once a sound understanding of the data has been laid as a foundation, course material cna then turn to the future and how then future global environment/data may unfold. The ability to stress-test different futures using riskNZ App brings a new dimension of applied risk/sensitivity analysis to tailored course units.

Client Feedback

Executive Education: MEF Course Creation & Delivery
Dr Alan Wu of Executive Director of China Programmes at AMBS Executive Education commented: "..we have worked with MEF for almost 15 years in which time they have assisted in devising & delivering custom programs from undergraduate Summer Schools to Corporate Executive Education with global-leading brands. We use MEF on applied programmes that requires the industry/domain knowledge of practitioner-academics rather than more theoretically-based faculty academics; with MEF's academic connections they can assist us in rebalancing this mix according to the particular client needs."
