Accreditations

The European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) is based on demanding international standards and awards a quality label to the best management training institutions. It is held by around 150 institutions worldwide, including HEC Lausanne. This accreditation certifies the excellence of our programmes in academic and teaching terms, as well as the degree of internationalisation and proximity to companies.

The EQUIS accreditation for our Faculty was renewed in December 2022 by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). This accreditation recognises our position as one of the world's leading management institutions.

The Association of MBAs (AMBA), founded in 1967, is both an international accreditation body and a professional membership organisation. The Association is recognised worldwide as an authority on postgraduate studies in management. It is the only accreditation that specifically assesses the quality of individual education programmes in management studies, setting the standards for MBAs, DBAs and MBMs worldwide.

We are part of a very select club of 225 accredited schools in 80 countries.
