If you don’t find the answer to your question, you are very welcome to contact us at info@se-institute.dk or by phone at +45 3120 5550.

No, there are no specific training or exam requirements to attend one of our four programs. Some participants have a long higher education, and others are “autodidacts” – but they may have, on the other hand, an extensive practical experience. Common to the participants, however, is that they have some years of experience as managers.

We would like to send you a physical or electronic program brochure for you, just contact us at info@se-institute.dk or phone +45 3120 5550.

Up to 60 days before the start of the program, you can cancel your participation and get 75% of the amount refunded. If you cancel less than 60 days before start, you can unfortunately not get the amount refunded. However, you can choose to send another participant at no additional cost, or transfer your participation to the next program by paying 25 percent of the training fee.

You can sign up for all programs on their individual sign up page. You are of course also very welcome to write to us at info@se-insitute.dk or call + 45 3120 5550 if you want our help.

Once you have signed up for a program, you will shortly receive an invoice of 25 percent of the education fee. The remaining 75 percent of the amount is billed 60 days before start-up. If you register less than 60 days before the start of the program, you will receive an invoice for the total amount.

The cost of hotel and catering are on a separate invoice.

At the Scandinavian Executive Institute we offer training programs for a large number of managers, top executives and board members at all levels. You can read much more about the individual program courses and which target group they are targeting.

If you are in any doubt as to which program best suits you, please contact us at info@seinstitute.dk or phone +45 3120 5550 – we would rather help you to evaluate which program gives you the greatest benefit.

There are no special admission requirements for the various programs, but of course we always talk to the participants to ensure that their level matches the level of the program and the other participants.

If you are unsure about which program is right for you, please feel free to contact us at info@se-insitute.dk or call + 45 3120 5550 – and we will be happy to have a dialogue with you.

All Scandinavian Executive Institute’s education courses consist of 1-3 modules. Leading Strategic Change INSEAD consists of one module, the Executive Board Program INSEAD consists of two modules and the Executive Management Program INSEAD and the Leadership Acceleration Program IMD consists of three modules.
As a general rule, you should expect to spend approximately 15-20 hours of preparation before each module.

Between Modules 2 and 3 on the Executive Management Program you also have to do a project assignment, and in this connection you have to expect to meet with your project group 2-3 times and spend about 20 hours.

There is no requirement for a specific number of years of experience to participate in one of our education programs. But common to all programs is that the participants have a number of years of practical experience as either managers, top executives or board members.
You can read more about which specific participant profiles are suitable for the different program courses here:

Since English is a common language at all programs, you must be able to understand English at business level, both in writing and speaking, and formulate yourself in English.

It is, however, very important to be aware that both participants and, not least, professors and teachers represent a large number of countries and therefore everyone “has their own accent”. It is in no way necessary to be “perfect” in English or American pronunciation – together we always find a way to educational communicate and help each other.

You have to make sure you book flights to all modules on the programme. However, we usually recommend a number of flight times, which often fit well with the individual program start.

Of course, we are happy to answer all your questions – whether they are practical or professional. You are very welcome to contact who you want on this page.

We are all ready to help you!

You will gain access to an online study portal/web app when you enroll in one of our programs. Through a login to the study portal, you will find materials, practical information, and answers to a range of questions related to your specific educational course.

At all programs and on all modules of these, we make sure to book hotel and catering for you. Accommodation will always be near Campus, so there is a short transport route to Campus. You will also always stay with the other participants of the program.

Please note, however, that hotel and catering costs are not included in the price of the education itself, but are billed separately.

Yes, after completing your program, all participants will receive a certificate from the Scandinavian Executive Institute and IMD or INSEAD.
