This week the IE expanded its official alumni network by another chapter in Melbourne, Australia. With a continuously growing group with currently about 15 members, Jason Andrew, EMBA 2011, took the lead and will be president of this chapter. For the start the gatherings will happen every 3 months. To connect with Alumni in the Melbourne area and in the rest of Australia, please visit the group on LinkedIn.

José García Cantera, IE alumnus and now CEO of Banesto (one of the world’s safest banks) visited IE as part of a new speaker series. Before the event, he sat down with Fernando Barnuevo, Managing Director of Kleinwort Benson Advisers AG and President of the IE Alumni Association for a personal chat.

Have you thought about an online / distance learning / blended Master Degree but you were not really sure whether this is right for you?

Definitely you’re not the only one… many doubts arise around the learning experience itself, the online methodology and the biggest question mark people put on the value of the degree for recruiters. Wouldn’t it be good to shade some light on these topics? And not just only from the perspective of the institution itself but from current students and graduates from the Global MBA?

So, you’re most welcome to attend to the first Global MBA Roundtable! Some of our current students and alumni in Singapore will talk about their expierences and reveal their personal perspectives on the questions raised above.

Here are the details:

• Date: June 14, 2011
• Time: 19:30 – 20:30
• Venue: Gallery Hotel, 1 Nanson Road (@Robertson Quay)
• Registration: http://bit.ly/GlobalMBA

And in case you’re interested in the Global Master in Finance, it is worthwhile to attend as well. Both progams share the learning methodoloy, group dynamics, videoconferences etc.
