Jameshedpur (Jharkhand) [India], March 10: XLRI - Xavier School of Management, Jamshedpur, has opened admissions for the 2026-28 batch of its Blended PGDM programs in Business Management, Human Resource Management, and Finance. The programs are designed for working professionals who seek rigorous management education without interrupting their careers. Now welcoming its fifth cohort, XLRI Blended Learning has demonstrated that rigorous management education can be delivered to working professionals without dilution. All three programs are AICTE-approved, two-year, master-level qualifications. Live online sessions are held on weekday evenings and weekends, complemented by four one-week campus immersion modules at XLRI Jamshedpur across the duration of the program. "XLRI Blended Learning is our commitment to carry the XLRI ethos - rigour, values and relevance - into the digital era. Our learners may be remote, but their experience is deeply immersive and academically robust." - Professor Giridhar Ramachandran, Associate Dean, XLRI Blended Learning Programs Founded in 1949 by the Society of Jesus, XLRI is the first business school of independent India. For over 75 years, the institution has produced leaders across every sector of industry and public life, guided by its mission: For the Greater Good. Its alumni hold senior leadership positions in major global and Indian organisations across finance, consumer goods, technology, and beyond. Three Programs. One Decision. No Career Break. XLRI offers three distinct blended PGDM programs, each designed for the specific growth trajectory of a different professional profile.

Blended PGDM - Human Resource Management Designed for HR professionals seeking to move from operational HR delivery to strategic people leadership. The program covers HR strategy, people analytics, talent management, compensation and rewards, organisational development, labour law, and cross-cultural management. The program prepares participants for senior HR leadership roles and, over the long arc of their career, the CHRO position.
