Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to propose a classification of corporate education programs for executives and talent reserve based on the revealed characteristics of such programs. The study explores existing Russian and foreign research literature, is based on authors' experience in development and implementation of such programs in a corporate academy, a business-school and in corporate universities, and also analyzes the content of other executive education programs provided by leading Russian corporate education organizations. Analysis of executive education programs classifications in foreign literature revealed that none of them inсluded all types of programs delivered in Russian corporate education, so the authors propose an original classification based on the relationship between the target audience and the competencies and skills to be developed. The proposed classification is of practical interest for professionals in corporate education and company HR, as it assists them in defining the type of a program they develop in-house or order from other educational organizations, in accordance with their organizational goals and through developing clusters of competencies and skills of their top-management.
