The BritishAmerican Business (BAB)  Academy is a series of workshops covering different business skills for high potential individuals aspiring to be general mangers and who are rising stars in their organisations.

The Academy offers a unique snapshot of key business functions and provides skills to help young professionals grow into general management roles.
