Hi,

I was going through the Executive MBA programs in Europe and US and it appears that the european programs are designed for singnificantly older and more experienced managers.

for example looks at the info about a typical student profile on their website

IMD Switzerland
The program is designed for those 35 and older, with an average of 15 years of business experience (minimum 10 years).

INSEAD FranceParticipant Profile
Rich business experience (11 yrs on average, with significant time in management)
Age range: 30's and early 40's

Is it the same for US programs in general ?
