The Executive DBA Council (EDBAC) is a global volunteer organization that focuses on executive doctoral programs and their issues. The group's posted mission is "...to provide outstanding networking and educational opportunities for professionals who serve and participate in executive doctoral degree programs." The group states on its website that it is the only global organization of its kind.[1]

History

The EDBAC was founded in 2011 to promote the DBA degree as a business or executive qualification, rather than an academic qualification, such as a PhD. The group held its first meeting at Case Western Reserve University in June 2011.[2]

DBA versus PhD

The DBA and PhD both focus on developing an individual's research skills, but the PhD is designed to prepare individuals for academic careers.[3] The DBA is intended to prepare students for a research career in business. An executive qualification such as a DBA is also called a practitioner degree.[2]
