As an introduction, let's look at who are
the main stakeholders in the Ibec Global Graduates program.
Ibec is the largest business and lobbying organization in Ireland.
In 1983, that program was established by
Ibec in Ireland and originally called Export Orientation program.
TU Dublin delivered the academic elements of the program.
Technological University Dublin was formerly known as
DIT and changed its name in January of 2019 to TU Dublin.
With origins as far back as 1887 in Ireland,
TU Dublin now has more than 20,000 students registered on its courses.
It has a long tradition of working with commercial organizations,
and it is the largest third-level provider of
continuing professional development and executive education programs in Ireland.

Hundreds of students and graduates are currently in
the stream on the Ibec Global Graduates program,
carrying out company placements all around the world.
The goal of the program is to build leadership capability
amongst its participants with both the student graduates on placement,
and the sponsor company benefiting.
