Prestigious AMBA accreditation reaffirms INSEEC School of Business & Economics’ international reputation for excellence

INSEEC School of Business and Economics, INSEEC University has officially received re-accreditation from the Association of MBAs (AMBA), one of the world’s leading authorities on post-graduate business education, demonstrating its continuing commitment to excellence in management education.

Accreditation from the Association of MBAs (AMBA) represents the highest standard of achievement in post-graduate business education. Its rigorous assessment criteria ensure that only the highest-calibre programmes which demonstrate the best standards in teaching, curriculum, and student interaction achieve Association of MBAs accreditation.  

INSEEC School of Business and Economics offers a master’s in management programme called the Grande Ecole Programme. This programme is delivered at three national campuses in Paris, Lyon and Bordeaux. The school has a focus on multidisciplinary learning, as well as an aim to produce responsible graduates who can lead at both a local and global level. 

Members of AMBA’s visiting accreditation panel, representing senior management at AMBA-accredited Business Schools globally, commended the engagement and commitment of faculty and staff, who they thought were a clear asset to the school.  

This was exemplified by the comments made by the current students who were impressed with their learning experience at the Business School. An element of learning the panel particularly noted was the thesis component of the MBA, which had been transformed in order to be more relevant for students, and their future careers.  

The panel also mentioned the benefits of the Paris campus being in a prime location, with the school investing in expanding its facilities which was seen as a positive sign for the future.  

‘This renewal of accreditation is the result of teamwork committed around a common project, the success of our students, and marks the international dimension of our school.’ Isabelle Barth, Dean of INSEEC School of Business & Economics. 

The accreditation is international in scope and reach, and AMBA works under the belief that accredited programmes should be of the highest standard and reflect changing trends and innovation in post-graduate management education. Its accreditation process reflects this commitment to fostering innovation, and demanding Business Schools to perform at the highest level continually.  

‘AMBA only accredits the world’s top Business Schools,’ said Andrew Main Wilson, Chief Executive of the Association of MBAs and Business Graduates Association (BGA). ‘I congratulate INSEEC School of Business and Economics on its re-accreditation and look forward to continuing to work with the school as part of our global network.’

Convinced that fundamentals are the key to extensive comprehension of a world which is increasingly complex and uncertain, the INSEEC School of Business & Economics propose a new model of education to approach the professions dealing with management, centered on both critical thinking and considered action. The objective is to enable our graduates to claim to a well-identified profession when leaving our School, but also to prepare them to face and tackle what lies ahead, giving them the capacity to evolve towards other types of functions, other ways to work, in situations and environments which are impossible to imagine today.
