Location of TiasNimbas Business School Tilburg

TiasNimbas Business School has a clear vision on the internationally recognised academic standards of an MBA as well as the quality approach on which we build our name. Our approach also includes introductory lectures, problem-based learning exercises, case studies (benchmarks or participants' business cases), student participation and applied projects.

We expect serious preparation for classes because it serves the individual learning curve and ensures that classes can be devoted to the exchange of knowledge and experiences. Frequent assignments and testing moments offer the possibility for both individual students and faculty to check the integration level of newly gained knowledge and the business application transfer.

High academic standards are carefully maintained to secure the integrity of the degrees earned. As a result, the educational benefits are substantial and the degree constitutes significant professional credentials.

A Master of Business Administration serves many objectives that may vary according to the business school offering the degree, the individual expectations and eventually the corporate ambitions.

The prime aim of the Executive MBA is to broaden and deepen current knowledge to the expected level of an executive professional.

It includes teaching concepts, frameworks and theories of management, to explore problems within management, and to show alternative routes to approach the problem at stake.
Defining and exploring the problem in all its facets comes first; next, we show that certain techniques can be used to solve them.

The second major objective of the Executive MBA is to support the individual participant to grow and develop to a higher professional and managerial level.

Personal reflection sessions, surveys and experimental exercises, role plays, peer coaching and expert feedback moments, and an outdoor hiking trip are some of the manifold techniques to raise awareness of the individual performance and leadership potential.

Funding details

The following are just a few of the financial aid opportunities available.

Loans

Participating in a TiasNimbas management programme is one of the best investments you could make. But what is the cleverest way of financing your studies?
Most of the time the employer pays (partly) for the expenses. Your employer can compensate the costs for education and deduct these costs as a genuine business expense from the chargeable gains.

Another option is to pay for the programme yourself. A substantial part of the costs will be compensated by the tax authorities. You can also choose to apply for a loan to (partly) finance your studies. You can choose to loan at your own bank, but you can also choose to make use of the TiasNimbas Loan.

Tax Deduction

Programme fees and study-related expenses may be tax deductible. Please contact the local authorities in your country for additional information. For Dutch participants additional information is available on the website of the Belastingdienst.
