WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY ABOUT US
Testimonials
Victoire Hossard
I started a business while studying at EDC Paris Business School. And in parallel, I integrated the Student Entrepreneur Course. This course is a great accompaniment from A to Z on all our business creation.
Christelle Georget
I chose “IE” for its international aspect. I have just returned from an internship with an Australian start-up. There are so many opportunities and markets to seize abroad !
Margaux Lelux
In the 3rd year, I worked, within the framework of my internship, within the Orange External Communication Department, on two major events: the GQ Night Style in the Marais district, and the Euro football organized in France during the summer of 2016.
Adrian Tabone
All the missions carried out were rich of teaching. At the end of the year, I did my internship “Commercial Force” in a Nicolas shop as a Proxy Manager and I gained a lot of autonomy and rigor.
Julien Brassart
I’ve lived in several countries and I speak 4 languages. The choice of EDC Paris Business School was obvious to me because I was looking for a school with an international opening and a course all in English.
Mohamed OUMENKHACHE
A renowned school, which offers the opportunity to discover new horizons even those that seem inaccessible to a student, the opportunity of a professional insertion as an apprentice allowing to integrate the strategic top of the hierarchy.
In addition to the academic framework, a rich associative life is part of the customs, perpetuated by each Edecian.
