National Management Program was the first long duration program launched by MDI. However, form the sixteenth batch onwards, the program was modified as Consortium EPGPM which is uniquely designed for young managers across all sectors of economy. It is offered in partnership with ESCP-EAP Paris and Norwegian School of Management, Norway.

The objective is to create a nucleus of like minded individuals in the top echelons of private, public and government sectors who can work together for the common goal of enhancing nation’s competitiveness; preparing global managers with a capacity to manage and effectively lead change. It, also emphasizes on building wealth–creating mindsets and strives to sensitize managers to ethical issues, thereby developing strength of character.

The program is recognized by AICTE and is accredited by AMBA(UK). After completion of 12 months classroom interaction at the MDI campus, participants are given international exposure for a period of 45 days in various European B-schools followed by a three months dissertation project in their own organization.

Teaching is based on research materials and experience gathered from around the world. The pedagogy is highly interactive envisaging substantial participation and experimental learning. Teaching methods include lectures, cases, seminars, group discussions, business games, role plays, simulations exercises, structured and unstructured group work and field visits.
