Henley was founded in 1945 as a place for the development of senior managers in British industry, and as such was the first business school in the UK.

Their service to industry and commerce grew and developed over the years both in the UK and overseas, and they are now working extensively with many international companies and with companies headquartered in several countries worldwide.

Henley has developed extensive expertise as a provider of the MBA degree. The College was one of the first to provide the MBA degree through distance learning in 1984, after ten years of previous experience in masters' level provision. From the start of their MBA programme, they have stressed the importance of combining learning at a distance with learning face-to-face with tutors and fellow participants.

Henley now deliver the MBA in four different modes -

• Executive Full-Time (one year),
• Modular - over two years,
• Flexible Evening (in the City of London and in Frankfurt), and
• Distance Learning.

In all of these Henley blend face-to-face learning with the use of our course materials available either over the internet, on CD ROM or as texts.

Henley has also been a pioneer in the delivery of the MBA to companies, tailoring the learning mode and application of the ideas to company needs. There are currently close to 7,000 people worldwide working on the Henley MBA degree.

Henley has also pioneered the DBA degree, and now has one of the largest and most respected professional doctoral programmes in the world.
