At least he was not elected.

Woah, you just threw out a whole load of universities right there! From the entire United States, only 3 make the cut? And the UK only 2?

Born in Sliema on the 13 February 1967, Ivan Grixti was educated at St Joseph Convent in Sliema and St Aloysius College, B’Kara. Which kindergarten? Go on, do tell..

Having obtained his A-levels I should bloody well hope so. he enrolled on the B.A.(Hons) Accountancy course at the University of Malta in 1986.We’re not interested in what you enrolled in, but what you graduated in. He graduated with 2nd Class (lower) in 1991 A 2.2.? Why embarrass yourself? whilst WHILE already engaged on a full-time basis with the commercial arm of the University As what?.

In 1993, he commenced ouch reading for his M.A. degree in Accounting & Finance at the University of Lancaster And did he graduate after “commencing”?.

In December 2014 he was awarded the Ph.D. degree from the University of Southampton Bloody hell, that’s last month. Given that his main research area is financial accounting, his doctoral thesis was dedicated to discovering how the change in the accounting paradigm from Historical Cost Accounting to Fair Value Measurement affected the Maltese scenario “Scenario”. “Was dedicated”. And what were your conclusions? You missed out on the essential bit..

In 2006 he became HE WAS accepted as a fellow of the AIA – Academic branch. He has contributed on various occasions to the official journal of the Malta Institute of Accountants and has conducted various seminars as part of the CPE programme.

On a professional level As opposed to amateur level? he was awarded the warrant of a CPA in 1992 and eventually, became a fellow of the MIA in 1998. In 2002 he was accepted as a member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. I give up.

He is also heavily involved in the local religious and civic life.Cringe, cringe, cringe. Between April 2008 and June 2013 he occupied the office of President of the King’s Own Band Club which was established in 1874 I can’t believe he actually wrote this on his academic page. He is also the current treasurer of the Arch-confraternity of the Blessed Crucifix in Valletta, which is responsible for the organisation of the Good Friday procession Please stop.. And is also one of the three commissioners entrusted with the running of the Arch-confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament in Valletta as well Enough, for the love of God.. More recently he has been appointed as a member of the audit committee of the archdiocese of Malta by H.G. Mons Paul Cremona O.P. I really give up. Fine university you have, Juanito.

There is a Stamford University.

“The essence of an MBA is the fact that you are trained by the best of class not by the rest.”

That is the case in anything not just in an MBA. Malta is an exception. It’s the only place in Europe where the fact that degree could be from anywhere, and nobody asks or cares.

You are right about Malta, but you seem to have a limited knowledge of higher education institutions. And it’s “Stanford”, by the way.

Instead, UCL (LBS), Cass, maybe Bocconi, Harvard, Wharton or Stamford.

The rest are a waste of time.

The essence of an MBA is the fact that you are trained by the best of class not by the rest.

What a waste of energy and a sacrilegious interpretation of what is otherwise a brilliant experience.
