The auditors also underlined the spirit of cohesion of the teams strongly committed to the continuous improvement process.
The AACSB accreditation is a new international recognition for ESDES Lyon Business School after obtaining the BSIS label in 2021 and the EFMD accreditation in 2020 for its Grande Ecole program. This label of excellence gives ESDES more international visibility to strengthen its student and faculty recruitment, forge new partnerships and increase the recognition of its diplomas by recruiters around the world.
ESDES Lyon Business School becomes the third AACSB accredited institution within the ACCES entrance exam. This makes ACCES the only 100% AACSB accredited post-baccalaureate business school entrance exam, a royal road to educational excellence and professional success.
