Programs

The institute offers an accredited Master of Business Administration and executive certificates covering various business-related topics through online classes. The online MBA is a two-year program and the certificates are six-week programs. In March 2013, the Institute launched a series of online, self-guided, self-paced management training programs under the Welch Way brand.

Welch developed the curriculum, drawing from his management experience as CEO of GE and his experience teaching managers and executives at GE's Leadership Development Center. In addition to helping shape the program's curriculum, he holds the title of distinguished professor at the institute. He regularly addresses students via video stream, and holds a video conference with them at the end of each term.

Welch expects the relatively low tuition and flexible schedule for the institute's MBA program to make the program attractive to those currently employed but wishing to earn an MBA. He has stated that he plans to grow the institute into the number one online business school in the world by 2016.

JWMI's MBA program was recently named the number one most influential education brand on Linkedin. and one of the top business schools to watch in 2016.The program has also been named one of the Top 25 Online MBA Programs two years in a row (2017 & 2018) by the Princeton Review for its excellence in five areas of selection criteria: academics, selectivity, faculty, technical platforms, and career outcomes.
