It was a really interesting and rewarding experience to go back to the University after years creating and managing a group of companies in the agri-food sector. I was able to update knowledge e share experiences with the teaching staff and colleagues. I learned a lot.
It was an excellent group, with a strong bond between everybody including the teaching staff and even the University. These programs are addictive to everyone who enjoys and is open to learning and I felt compelled to enrol into other programs.
Another added value is the conveyed message of “role model” inside our organization that motivated several executives from our group to enrol in CATÓLICA-LISBON in order to refresh their skills.
The content of the program is complete and comprehensive, the teaching staff is composed of experts on the subjects taught and CATÓLICA-LISBON is indeed a Great School of Knowledge.
I’m grateful for CATÓLICA-LISBON’s availability in creating a now established partnership with our group for specific training programs.

My enrolment in PAGE came as a consequence of a number of formerly successful Católica Lisbon’s programs, and aimed at updating my knowledge in Management areas. The broad contents served as a reminder of some concepts as well as acquire new ones, to understand the current context of Business Management and to foresee the future, the trends, the challenges and opportunities, always based on a faculty of excellence that challenges us throughout the program. It is also an equally powerful networking tool, given the openness and availability of all participants to share both personal and professional experiences, that enrich us. It will, without a doubt, have a positive impact in my professional career.

In an extremely competitive market, where the ability to adapt quickly is an increasingly differentiating element, PAGE is undoubtedly the right choice for those who want to increase and develop their management skills in a real-life scenario, through a recognized training/educational executive program.

The rigor and professionalism of the teaching staff and the way the program structure is managed allowed me to explore, develop and recycle a set of skills and knowledge, not only directly applicable to the management area, but also to other complementary areas, due to the synergy between the PAGE program and the various companies we had the opportunity to contact with directly. Also worth noting, was all the personal and professional enrichment, thanks to the positive broadening of the (contact) network enhanced by the learning process and the sharing of experiences.”

In the so-called Digital Era, knowledge as a continuous, flexible and evolutionary learning has established itself as a true must-have for all professionals who aspire to meet the diverse demands of their organizations. With this in mind, I decided to look for an executive program containing a broad curriculum, with an operational profile, but which was also strategic and forward-looking, where both my professional and personal growth were possible. Given I had already participated in the PARH, at the emblematic Católica Lisbon School, I considered PAGE as the most righteous choice, due to the richness of the topics addressed, the faculty members’ experience and, most importantly, for the resulting network. For this reason, it was with great satisfaction, that I encountered a fantastic group of colleagues with whom I continue to have the privilege to connect to, and that made this experience utterly memorable.

In the current business setting/In today’s business world, characterized by technology, connectivity, innovation and sustainability and a highly competitive environment, it is fundamental to continue acquiring knowledge, skills and management tools, in line with the best and most innovative practices implemented at the global scale. In that sense, CATÓLICA-LISBON is a leading international reference, featuring a prestigious and highly qualified faculty, who have always encouraged learning and discussion of ideas. The high level of participants was another determining factor for the enrichment of the program, having stimulated networking and a strong team spirit. The knowledge I acquired through PAGE, is most certainly useful for the current and future challenges, in the sector where I work, given my experience and professional activity in Operations Management, and taking into account my background education in Law. I will most definitely return!

At this moment, when we are experiencing deep changes in management and in the search for acquiring new skills and improve others, and given the excellent reputation that the school has and the experiences shared by former participants, PAGE was the (only) option. The expectation was initially very high, and through the whole PAGE program, those expectations were never defrauded, either by the educational, functional and engaging way the contents were presented by the different professors, but also by the methodological and conceptual terms within the different modules. If it was worth it? For sure. Would I do it again? Without a doubt.

PAGE gives us the possibility of not only, share experiences and knowledge with participants and teachers by extending our network of contacts (networking), but above all gives us an updated knowledge with the best practices on the most diverse topics, including, finance, economics, competition, management, leadership, etc... that for someone who comes from a very specific course allows to open horizons and be able to make decisions in a more rational and conscious way.

Attending a course like the PAGE program is a way of doing a conceptual check of our thought process, ensuring a more structured and vibrant dimension. It was a gratifying experience to return to studying and during the sessions at the CATÓLICA-LISBON the enthusiasm between professors and students reminded me of my years in college. The CATÓLICA-LISBON Executive Training programs make us feel at home in a serious but informal environment. I am proud to say that the CATÓLICA-LISBON is now also my college!

I make an extremely positive balance of my participation in the 61st edition of PAGE. CATÓLICA-LISBON provided a program with practical and current contents with an excellent faculty. The acquired knowledge helped forming a broader vision of the challenges that we management faces today and awakened me the interest in deepen and explore new topics. Lastly, the spirit of PAGE lasts  in a network form of people with common interests.

The PAGE program was a very enriching experience in terms of technical education where it was possible to study and acquire new concepts and tools in the management area, which, in turn, will enable its practical application to new professional challenges. The PAGE program was also important with regards to personal development, where we developed our skills as a group with fellow participants from many different areas, which enabled us to overcome some challenges and made us grow as professionals and, most importantly, as people.

As a former student of the CATÓLICA-LISBON's graduate degree program in Management I once again experienced the excellence of the CATÓLICA-LISBON, this time in an Executive Training Program, which updated our knowledge in a very objective manner with regard to the most relevant and topical issues of contemporary companies.

PAGE was certainly a very enriching experience, not only for the excellence of the faculty and the program content, but also by the proximity, cooperation and networking promoted among all participants. In a competitive and unpredictable market, this factors, allow PAGE participants to improve their individual performance and current businesses as well as their participation in future projects and challenges throughout their careers.

PAGE was a very important program and I believe that was an added value to my professional performance. The content of the program is useful not only for those already working in the field of management that want to keep up to date, but also for those who want to acquire new knowledge.
It was a wise choice, not only by the faculty of the program, as well as the topics covered and the credibility of the Universidade Católica Portuguesa.

Since I have a background in civil engineering, I gained a lot by attending the PAGE program, which has helped me in terms of my activities while administering the company. I quickly applied the technical management knowledge acquired during the course and in some cases it helped to better understand and find solutions for the situations that arose. The environment in the classroom sessions and the relationships with the professors were excellent. We had a fantastic group of colleagues and we have maintained strong ties. In short, I have had a frankly positive experience at all levels during this time at the CATÓLICA-LISBON.

PAGE is without a doubt an extraordinary program, very comprehensive and with a very competent teaching staff. Having studied engineering, but with a professional career associated with management, attending PAGE allowed me not only to consolidate previously acquired knowledge but also to gain a new set of concepts, methods and tools that will undoubtedly change my professional and personal life.

It was a very enrichening experience with which I had the opportunity to know an excelent school, new people and share unique moments.

Congratulations to Católica.

In an increasingly demanding market, investment in training and professional development allow us to ensure differentiation of any business. PAGE allowed me to deepen my knowledge in management that was outside the scope of my degree (human resource management) and throughout my career was becoming essential to my activity performance. The exchange of experiences with teachers and students not only allowed a clear improvement of my professional performance but also gave me the encouragement to change and look for more challenges.

A escolha do PAGE surgiu da necessidade de revisitar conceitos e atualizar conhecimentos nas diversas áreas de Gestão. Vi nesta formação uma oportunidade para mergulhar e refletir sobre temáticas que regem cada vez mais a atualidade.

O conteúdo programático foi bastante abrangente e completo, focando temas como o Digital, a Inovação, a Sustentabilidade, Business with Purpose, ferramentas que nos ajudam a responder aos desafios numa época cada vez mais dinâmica.

O facto de o grupo de participantes ter um perfil muito diversificado permitiu-nos beneficiar de uma vivência coletiva e conhecer outros contextos empresariais.

Foi para mim um privilégio fazer parte do PAGE 75. Deste Magnífico Elenco, entre Corpo Docente, Equipa de Operações e Queridos Colegas, floresceu uma genuína relação de amizade e cumplicidade, que, tenho a certeza, nos acompanhará ao longo da vida.

Having a prior education in engineering and currently with management duties, betting on the PAGE program aimed to develop my knowledge across areas such as management, finance and marketing. It was an excellent decision. The theory and practice; indoor and outdoor; the human factor, and the networking with other professionals helped me develop a way of thinking, acting and strive. I now grasp the rewards in my daily life. I acquired what I was looking for, thanks to a highly qualified faculty, with practical experience in the corporate world. Life-long friendships have been forged. I would bet on CATÓLICA LISBON’s PAGE program again!

A participação no PAGE foi bastante enriquecedora não só a nível profissional, como também a nível pessoal e humano. Permitiu-nos adquirir novos conhecimentos em diversas áreas, economia, gestão, finanças, liderança, estratégia, recursos humanos, entre outras, sempre com uma visão muito atualizada e voltada para o futuro. 

O programa é vasto e está minuciosamente estruturado, o corpo docente é altamente qualificado, competente e disponível, o que permitiu uma interação e humanização de todos os participantes do PAGE. 

O balanço do PAGE ultrapassou todas as minhas expectativas, porque proporcionou conhecimento de aplicação prática e a nível profissional, com a vantagem de estar inserida num grupo de colegas heterogéneo, que em muito contribuíram para uma experiência única. 

Participating in PAGE 69 has been a very enriching experience for several reasons, the excellence of teachers; the quality of the contents, very well structured, as well as the way of teaching, very pragmatic and objective. Finally yet importantly, the fantastic and diverse group of students, coming from different professional areas, providing unique moments of sharing, promoting an additional acquisition of knowledge and valuable networking.

This value-added learning is already influencing my life experience, making me reflect on some past and present decisions. I highly recommend this program, because surely it will positively mark my personal and professional life.

PAGE was a milestone in my professional life! With its exceptional faculty, the updated and detailed structure of the program, allowed me to get a modern and current view of business management, acquire concepts, develop skills and use tools, which in the increasingly competitive and demanding market are certainly pluses for success. Along with a diverse group of colleagues who, by sharing their experiences in the different sectors, enriched and added value to this already so prestigious program of CATÓLICA-LISBON.
