MBA Programs and Executive MBA Programs sometimes have a similar curriculum, but the class format and admission requirements vary.

Typically, the applicants to an Executive MBA Program must have a minimum of five years professional work experience. Executive MBA Programs are designed to meet the needs of upper level managers. Candidates are often evaluated based on what they will bring to the program. In most cases, taking the GMAT is not required.

MBA Program applicants are not required to have professional work experience, but they must take the GMAT. An MBA degree is essentially a general management degree.

Class format also differs between the two programs. In an MBA Program, students usually choose the classes they will take each quarter. In an Executive MBA program, students often complete classes in a step-lock method, attending courses with the same classmates for the duration of the program.

As far as I know, Nottingham had a thorough interview process on the applicants for their MBA courses.
That was a few years back where they are still in MISC building KL.
The person interviewing is the faculty head or senior lecturers from their actual Nottingham Uni over at Nottingham.

Anyway, since you're already working; you can always provide your direct supervisors/managers/bosses or "ex" as referee. No need to really go back to "previous lecturer". That was meant more for those who are fresh grads.
