EDHEC acted as a pilot institution for evaluation processes 20 years ago and was one of the first French business schools to receive accreditations. As hallmarks of academic excellence and recognition from the higher education world, accreditations are a means for business schools to be evaluated by high-level peers, such as France’s Ministry for Higher Education and Research or the country’s CEFDG management degrees and training evaluation committee.
CEFDG Certification visas and/or grades are granted subject to a set of demanding criteria, including the intellectual output and contributions of the school’s teaching & research faculty and the employability of its graduates. Based on the quality and excellence of our programmes, EDHEC’s degrees are accredited by France’s Ministry for Higher Education and Research:
All these evaluation processes enable EDHEC to develop, improve, take objective stock of what we do and ensure the educational standards we demand are reflected in practice. EDHEC is also a member of the select category of business schools worldwide (fewer than 1%) to be triple-accredited by AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA.
AACSB brings together management education professionals at the highest level. After a lengthy evaluation process, it accredits institutions whose training satisfies a demanding set of evaluation criteria: stringent student recruitment process, high academic-level professors, student evaluation process and teaching methods used, etc. EDHEC obtained AACSB accreditation in March 2004.
AMBA accreditation is a hallmark of quality and international recognition for MBAs. AMBA seeks to maintain and improve standards for both full-time and part-time MBA-type programmes. The association assesses the organising institution, the content and timing of programmes, the quality of the teaching faculty, the curricula followed by students, follow-up services to graduates, and their skills and post-programme value on the market. EDHEC has held this accreditation since 2003 for all its Masters in Management, MBAs and Executive MBA.
The EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) accreditation process is integral to business and management schools. Run by the Brussels-based European Foundation for Management Development, it aims to promote academic excellence, educational innovation, close relations between schools and businesses, and internationalisation. EDHEC Business School’s accreditation by EQUIS was renewed for five years in October 2020. The School has held this recognition for over 20 years, with renewals always obtained for the maximum period.
