Stepping into leadership today requires more than ambition — it demands perspective, cross-functional understanding, and the confidence to act decisively in complex environments. The Accelerated Management Programme (AMP) is designed for professionals ready to make that transition with speed and clarity. Whether you're repositioning your career, preparing for an executive path, or seeking to sharpen your management capabilities, AMP is a powerful catalyst for growth. Here are the top reasons why:
AMP offers an immersive experience modelled on the Solvay Executive MBA - it is, in fact, our EMBA's first level! Through case-based learning, interactive sessions, and exposure to experienced faculty, participants build practical knowledge that reflects today’s business challenges. The programme subsequently provides a direct pathway to the EMBA, with recognition of prior learning and preferential admission, should you wish to continue.
Designed as an intensive, short-term programme, AMP delivers impact in a matter of months. It equips participants with key management tools and insights that can immediately support a move into leadership roles or open new professional avenues.
Strategic thinking is fundamental to AMP. Participants develop a broad, cross-functional understanding, enhance their business acumen, and cultivate the skill to link different departments: critical traits for those entering decision-making positions.
Many of our alumni have preferred this 6-month programme for its agility when it comes to balancing a demanding professional schedule and personal life. Its flexible, part-time format ensures that you can invest in your development without stepping away from your current role or compromising family responsibilities.
AMP brings together professionals from diverse sectors and backgrounds, creating a rich environment for peer learning and new perspectives. You’ll also gain access to Solvay’s broader executive alumni network, an active and supportive community of over 35,000 executives across various industries.
The programme is designed to strengthen both your presence and your competence. With exposure to senior-level thinking, leadership frameworks, and actionable tools, you’ll enhance your ability to lead teams, influence stakeholders, and manage complexity.
Throughout the course, you will be empowered to tackle complexity and manage change effectively. You'll cultivate the adaptability and mindset essential for thriving in unpredictable settings, a hallmark of resilient leaders in a volatile world. Through active learning, you will engage with real-world scenarios, simulations, and real-case analyses that mirror the complexity of today's management environment, preparing you to act with confidence in high-stakes situations.
Led by a mix of accomplished academics and experienced business leaders, AMP courses strike a balance between intellectual rigour and market relevance. Topics span core management disciplines, including finance, strategy, innovation, and leadership; you will be sure to leave with the most relevant practices and research in business today.
The Accelerated Management Programme is dedicated to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which serve as a blueprint for creating a more sustainable planet by 2030. Throughout many modules, your professors will keep you informed about the latest developments in sustainable business practices.
Our programme formally recognises your development, and so does the business sector. Graduates receive a university certificate from Solvay Brussels School, a business school renowned in Belgium for the quality of its management education. The certificate is trusted by employers and offers a clear signal that you are ready for leadership responsibilities.
Leadership is a mindset, but it also requires tools, perspective, and the right learning environment. The Accelerated Management Programme helps you build all three.
If you're ready to bring together practical tools, a strategic perspective, and a network of peers and experts to help you build a foundation for impactful leadership, this is the ideal place to start.
