Simon Flemington, CEO of LSE Executive Education said:
"Current research has shown that there are numerous challenges faced by people returning to the workplace, such as a lack of up to date business knowledge, new regulatory environments, emerging markets and latest technological advances. These challenges can be overcome with the right preparation and expert knowledge and this is exactly what LSE Executive Education and UBS can offer.’
Mona Lau, UBS Global Head of Diversity said;
"At UBS we know from experience that talented individuals can successfully relaunch their careers. We’re confident that this programme will give them the cutting-edge information they need so that they can hit the ground running."
