With a solid tradition of excellence and a constant drive for innovation, SDA Bocconi School of Management has reached the podium in the 2025 Financial Times ranking dedicated to Custom Executive Education programs, tailored to the needs of companies. This milestone marks a steady upward trajectory: from ninth place two years ago, to sixth last year and now third, confirming the strength and effectiveness of the School’s approach.

This result is even more remarkable considering that SDA Bocconi ranked first in key areas such as faculty quality and teaching methodology, as well as in strategic dimensions like post-program support and the ability to build strong, long-term partnerships with companies that continue to renew their collaboration with the School over time.

Each program is tailor-made and co-designed with our clients to effectively address the unique needs of every company. The result is a shared transformation process that goes beyond knowledge transfer, generating lasting value for organizations, individuals and the broader community well beyond the end of the program.

As SDA Bocconi Dean, Stefano Caselli, highlights: “Custom executive education has always been at the heart of the School’s history, DNA and identity. It reflects the ability to respond promptly and flexibly to the needs of companies and institutions, combined with a distinctive care in managing relationships and creativity in designing content. The result we’ve achieved is closely linked to both our international expansion and the ability to generate impact, starting from our own country.”
