HEC Paris launches a 2nd online certificate: Strategy@HEC Paris

Following the success of its first online program, the International Certificate in Corporate Finance (ICCF@HEC Paris), HEC Paris will launch its second online certificate program with its partner, First Finance Institute this September.

Strategy@HEC Paris, will enable participants to understand the reasons behind the success and failure of certain companies, and provide the tools and frameworks for them to formulate and implement effective strategies for their own organisations.

Participants will also discover the ways in which a company can increase its performance whilst developing its activities, and will build knowledge essential to the successful development of businesses in new markets.

The curriculum is composed of three core courses – Business Strategy, Corporate Strategy and Strategy Implementation – delivered online through virtual classes, videos, forums and other activities.

The program will be taught by faculty from HEC Paris’ strategic management department: Pierre Dussauge, Laurence Lehmann-Ortega, Georges Blanc, Bernard Ramanantsoa, Hélène Chanut-Musikas and Bertrand Moingeon.

For Pierre Dussauge, Academic Director of the program, the fundamental question any strategy must answer is, “why are some firms more successful than others?”

Pierre says,

“The certificate will permit the participant to understand the reasons for success or failure and will provide the keys to build an effective strategy and then to put it into place.”

Admittance to the programme is open to all, and enrolment is currently underway. The certificate is priced at €1,800. The ICCF@HEC Paris programs are now accredited by EFMD.

The course will begin on 27th September 2016. For more information, or to apply, please click here.
