EM Normandie renews its EQUIS international accreditation

EM Normandie renews its EQUIS international accreditation for 3 years.

The renewal, granted by the EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development), validates the strength of the school's academic model, the consistency of its development strategy and its positioning among the world's top business schools. In particular, it highlights the school's local and international roots, the quality of its research, the employability of its graduates, its commitment to impact and the strength of its network.

Dynamism and excellence serving student success

This renewal acknowledges the continuous progress made by EM Normandie since its first accreditation in 2016. It is based on the academic excellence of its faculty, the attractiveness of its six national and international campuses, its high level of internationalisation, as well as a deeply rooted CSR commitment to all its stakeholders. It also highlights the strong links established with local economic and institutional players, the relevance of a portfolio of skills-based programmes that encourage high-quality professional immersion, and the variety of services offered to students, designed to support their professional development and well-being.

Awarded to less than 1% of the world's business schools, EQUIS accreditation distinguishes institutions that demonstrate the highest standards of quality in terms of governance, academic excellence, research, international openness, links with business, societal impact and capacity for innovation. Combined with the AACSB and AMBA accreditations also held by EM Normandie, EQUIS accreditation places the school among the exclusive circle of triple-accredited institutions on an international scale.

The renewal of EQUIS accreditation reflects the collective work of the school's teams and the commitment of all the stakeholders who make up the EM Normandie community. I would like to thank them most sincerely. It validates the relevance of the school's strategic orientations, reinforces its attractiveness to applicants, our students, our academic partners and companies, both in France and internationally. This distinction also means that we are committed to continuing our efforts in terms of responsibility and impact, and to striving for ever greater excellence.
