What Łazarski Executive Education does

It delivers 8 specialized MBA programs (Healthcare, Sports Business, Management, Energy, Aviation, Construction, ESG/Sustainable Business, Healthcare Innovation & Technology) and more than 50 postgraduate programs, plus courses and a Łazarski Executive Club alumni network. Programs are offered in part-time weekend format, with 70–80% in-person delivery at the Warsaw campus and up to 30–40% remote, supported by a Wirtualna Uczelnia LMS and Microsoft Teams. The 2025/2026 cohort produced 1,059 graduates averaging 38 years of age (61% female), reflecting a broad working-professional base across sectors.

The business model is fee-based tuition priced in Polish zloty, with MBA programs ranging from 30,000 PLN (Aviation) to 43,000 PLN (Management) and installment plans spanning 3 to 9 months. A 200 PLN enrollment fee, 10% early-bird discount (deadline 30 June), and 20% alumni discount are layered onto the price book. Revenue is supplemented by employer-sponsored training (with invoicing to corporate payers) and public funding channels (KFS, PFRON Aktywny Samorząd). The go-to-market is sales-led through an online registration portal (rekrutacja-ckp.lazarski.pl), supplemented by events, webinars, open days, and the alumni community. Core differentiators are sector-specific MBAs co-developed with industry partners (ICAO, PANSA, CPK, Gdańsk Medical University, 4F, InPost, UN Global Compact Network Poland), a 600+ practitioner faculty, and regulatory alignment enabling graduates to qualify for supervisory board roles in Polish state-owned enterprises under Article 19 of the Act on Management of State Treasury Assets. The institution holds PKA accreditation, CEEMAN international accreditation, and U-Multirank recognition, with the parent university ranked #1 among non-public law faculties in Poland for 16 consecutive years.
