Indian
Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) continues to
create benchmarks in management education by constant
innovation and cutting-edge programmes. As a result, the
institute has been adjudged the best Business School in
India for two years running. Asia Week in its survey conducted
amongst all business schools over Asia and Australia ranked
IIMB's Executive Education amongst the Top Eight - the
only Indian Business School to be so ranked in this survey.
The Wall Street Journal Guide to the Top Business Schools
2003 lists IIMB amongst the top 100 business schools in
the world. IIMB is the only management school from Asia
to figure in this list. With a view to provide a stimulating
learning environment, the IIMB campus is located in 100
acres of sylvan surroundings on the outskirts of Bangalore.
The all-stone buildings, surrounded by verdant and lush
woods make for a perfect setting for learning. The infrastructure
in terms of classrooms, computer facilities and library
are unmatched in this part of the world.
The
Nadathur S Raghavan Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning
(NSRCEL) has been set up at IIMB to encourage entrepreneurs
in carefully defining the opportunities they perceive
and help them access the resources they require, to convert
their dreams to reality. NSRCEL through IIMB, in this
programme, offers Chartered Accountants, Cost Accountants
and Company Secretaries, an opportunity to broaden their
perspectives by creating an awareness of the advanced
techniques and best practices for operating and succeeding
in a global business scenario. The programme will seek
to impart to participants the formal management thought
processes, techniques and skills, suitably conditioned
for application in a global context.
KSCAA
is a state body, registered in 1957 under the Karnataka
Societies Registration Act, with the objective of promoting
the interests of its members, to better equip them to
discharge their professional obligations. The association
is interested in spreading knowledge in the area of accountancy,
finance and management, areas of professional interest
to Chartered Accountants. With this in mind, KSCAA has
approached NSRCEL/IIMB to conduct a program for its members.
