Man: Good afternoon. My name is Andrew Bridgewater. And today I’m here to tell you about Hertford Management College. I taught at the college for six years and I’d like to give you a few details about how we started and explain exactly what we offer. If any of you think that you or your staff would be interested in attending the college, I will be available afterwards to answer questions.
The college was founded 39 years ago in this magnificent stately home, which was built by the Duke of Bridgewater in the 1830s. It was occupied by his family until the 1950s when it was sold to a management consultancy. This ownership meant the college was and still is intimately connected with the real world of work, and not just a place of study.
It began life as a college, offering short, intensive courses. We moved into the MBA market in 1988 with full time, then part time, and now many varieties of MBA.
We like to think ourselves as the Rolls-Royce of business schools. First of all, we are in the countryside, away from the noise of the city. Most importantly, of course, we have excellent study facilities. These include a learning recourse centre which has a selection of personal computers. We also offer unique facility of media training equipment. And furthermore, we have specialist access to company files to allow our students to study real situations and to resolve real problems.
Our MBA is highly practical. Teaching is in small seminar groups. No programme has more than 30 students, which is the main reason why our fees are high. But most of our students are sponsored by their companies.
On top of this, each student has a project supervisor as well because the heart of our course is something called a "live consultancy project". And this is when we arrange for students to go into a real business, identify a problem and come up with the set of solutions. Then they return to the college and put the solutions down in a proposal which is then assessed. This work is overseen by one of our faculty members, all of whom are consultants in their own right.
The minimum requirement for the course is a degree or relevant diploma. Ideally, applicants should also have five years’ management experience. It’s worth noting that many of our students are already successful business people, and a large proportion of our ex-students go on to be company directors.
You also need a valid English language qualification if English is not your first language. We have quite a few oversea students and we can make use of excellent international connections.
Overall, I am confident in saying that we offer very good value for money and we can show that after spending ￡17,000 on one of our courses, for our graduates the world is their roster.
