BatteryMBA 2026 cohort calendar: pick your start date
Three cohorts in 2026, each twelve weeks live, each with the same curriculum. Here is how to pick the one that actually fits your year.
BatteryMBA runs three live cohorts a year. Same curriculum, same faculty rotation, same case-study track, only the calendar changes. The right one for you depends on what is happening in the rest of your year, not on what the programme covers.
C18, September to December 2026
Twelve weeks running 14 September through 5 December 2026. This is the cohort most professionals pick: industry conferences happen in September and October, you finish before the December holiday season, and the case-study track lands while your team is still engaged at year-end.
Choose C18 if you want to apply what you learn directly to next year's planning cycle, or if a 2027 promotion or job move is on your horizon and you want the credential signed off before January.
How to decide
We hold a 15-minute overview call where we look at your year honestly and tell you which cohort to aim for. There is no upsell, sometimes the right answer is 'wait one cohort and let your Q3 settle'. Book the call from the navigation menu.
- Five to seven hours per week, mostly live evenings (CET)
- Three Wednesday sessions over the term for the case-study track
- Final presentations in the last week, block the calendar early
