KNOW-HOW AND MAKING SURE IT GETS PASSED ON

Our in-company development is guided by three key aims. 

To enhance EDHEC's standing with the business world even further. What better way to show the business world the relevance and validity of our educational input than by directly helping to train their executives and managers? 

To develop the competencies of EDHEC's teaching faculty by plunging them into the heart of the business world, creating a positive knock-on effect for all our other programmes. 

To make a general contribution by seeing our strategy implemented through our implicit final client, namely the corporate world. 

Our main concern today is to ensure that the business world is aware of our know-how.  EDHEC has more than 100 professors, 70% of whom hold PhDs. In the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region, we are the leading development and research centre, academically speaking. 

This means there is a gap between our real capacity and our reputation, a gap which we have to work to fill! 

That is why we design highly innovative solutions for the corporate world in our bids for tender. This innovation illustrates our level of competence but now we also have to develop our activities in terms of dissemination and communication. We have the know-how. We now have to make it known!
