The New Age Management Programme for Senior Professionals (NAMP) is IIM Kozhikode's executive program specifically designed for professionals with 10+ years of work experience. It runs for 11 months, is delivered online with campus immersion at IIM-K, and gives IIM Kozhikode alumni status on completion.
What makes it distinctive: the '10+ years experience' requirement is not a loose guideline — it is baked into the curriculum design. The program assumes you already understand operations, execution and function-specific expertise. It builds strategic leadership, business transformation, and C-suite readiness on top of that foundation.

NAMP is one of the most honestly positioned IIM programs — it doesn't try to be a general MBA for everyone. Its 10+ year requirement means your cohort consists of established professionals at a similar career stage. The peer learning in that room is genuinely different from programs where you're sitting next to someone with 3 years of experience.
The curriculum is designed around strategic leadership challenges — P&L management, business transformation, leading in uncertainty — not foundational management basics that you already know after a decade.
NAMP is a certificate, not a degree. At ₹2.85L it is good value for an IIM credential, but go in with clear expectations: this gives you an IIM-K certificate and alumni status. It does not give you a degree, and it does not include placement support.
