Editorial Standards
How Gradia researches, writes, and reviews executive education content.
Who writes this content
Gradia's location, topic, and format hub pages are authored and reviewed by The Gradia Editorial Team — an in-house research group that specializes in the executive education market. Our researchers hold business and education backgrounds and work directly with business school program teams to verify the information we publish.
How we source information
Every program we list is sourced directly from the school that runs it — either via a published program page, a signed partner agreement, or direct data exchange with the school's executive education office. We only list schools that hold at least one internationally recognized accreditation (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA, or Triple Crown). We do not list programs we cannot verify against a primary source.
How we write hub content
Hub pages (such as "Leadership Executive Education" or "Executive Education in London") combine structured program data with editorial guidance about the topic, location, or format. The editorial prose is drafted with LLM assistance against a Gradia-specific research prompt that enforces factual grounding, sourcing standards, and a neutral, non-promotional tone. Every hub is reviewed by a Gradia researcher before publication and on a regular cadence thereafter.
How we handle updates
Program details — prices, start dates, formats, locations, accreditations — refresh automatically from our partner schools' data feeds. Hub editorial content is reviewed on a rolling schedule; the "Last updated" date shown on each hub reflects the most recent editorial review.
Independence and commercial relationships
Gradia is a comparison platform and earns revenue from partnerships with business schools. Our editorial standards are separate from our commercial relationships: we do not rank or describe programs differently based on a school's partner status, and we publish the same accreditation-gated catalog for partner and non-partner schools alike.
Corrections
If you spot an error — in program data, a hub description, or an FAQ answer — please reach out via our contact page. We review every correction request and, where needed, update the source content and regenerate the affected pages.
