V&A Executive Education offers a fresh perspective on leadership and learning.

Designed for senior teams and forward-thinking organisations, our programmes take place inside two of the UK’s most iconic museums, V&A South Kensington and V&A East Storehouse. We use the power of creativity, culture and hands-on exploration to help teams tackle real business challenges in new ways.

Whether you're looking to build creative leadership, strengthen team culture, or reimagine your brand, we’ll work with you to design a learning experience that’s as inspiring as it is impactful.

What makes us different?

We don’t do traditional training. We do transformation.

At the V&A, we believe creativity is a powerful tool for change. Our programmes immerse your team in the museum’s world-class collections, exhibitions and spaces, sparking new ways of thinking through drawing, discussion, and discovery.

You’ll work with V&A curators, creative practitioners and learning experts to explore themes like identity, belonging, innovation and leadership. The result? A shift in mindset that lasts long after the day ends.
