PARIS, April 15, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

The accreditation body of EQUIS (EFMD) has just voted to reaccredit SKEMA

Business School for five years, the maximum duration of the accreditation.

SKEMA is among the very few business schools across the world that are "full

accredited" under EQUIS. Currently, 15 management schools in France and 119

worldwide hold this distinction.

This re-accreditation rewards the overall strategy of the school and recognises

the strength of the model and its excellence internationally. The report points

out that SKEMA is "a dynamic and forward-looking business school, with a strong

culture of collegiality and solid internal and external governance structures."

The following points have been particularly highlighted:

The overall strategy and the positioning of the school

Diversity and a strong international attractiveness regarding the range of

programs which prepare future talents in the knowledge economy to meet the

challenges of a globalised economy

The high quality of the faculty and its ability to be part of educational

innovation

The commitment and professionalism of teams on all the campuses, the

satisfaction of the students and their pride in being "SKEMIENS" (in their own

words, SKEMA is "stimulating, diverse, global, memorable, innovative and

entrepreneurial.")

The strategy developed for executive education, which is set to develop further

The territorial footprint; the dynamism and support of partners on different

sites (companies, academic partners, incubators, public and private

institutions, etc.), the school having found the "right model" for developing

links with the practices of different ecosystems where it is part of.

Alice Guilhon, dean of SKEMA Business School, comments: "I would like to thank

all our stakeholders for the work we have accomplished. I hope that we will

progress and continue on our path: in the next five years, we will implement

our new SKY25 strategic plan. We will pay particular attention to strengthening

"impact research" dedicated to businesses and society, and the achievement of

our mission, more than ever at the service of the transformation of societies,

for a better and fairer world."
