Católica Porto Business School’s executive education programmes prepare business leaders to compete in a highly complex and competitive environment. For that reason, many industry associations and professional trade groups choose Católica Porto Business School as their academic partner for the design and delivery of world-class executive learning solutions.

Two recent examples are the protocols signed with ANJE - Associação Nacional de Jovens Empresários (National Association of Young Entrepreneurs) and with OROC – Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas (Association of Chartered Accountants).

The protocol signed with ANJE - Associação Nacional de Jovens Empresários (National Association of Young Entrepreneurs) has already an outcome, the new Postgraduate Programme in Entrepreneurship & Business Development. The first edition will start in February 2024, and those interested can learn more and apply here. For the programme director, Luís Pina Rebelo, this protocol “will allow the development of relevant activities for the Portuguese economy's competitiveness and empowerment, such as advanced training in management and entrepreneurship".

In September, Católica Porto Business School and OROC – Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas (Association of Chartered Accountants) signed an agreement for executives’ education and training, offering OROC members preferential conditions for access to courses in the CPBS Executive Education catalogue.

For Rui Soucasaux Sousa, dean of Católica Porto Business School, these partnerships “are further evidence of the close connection of our School to the business reality, strengthening its mission to promote programs of excellence, with international recognition, which constitutes opportunities for professional enrichment and qualification.”
