Students are evaluated in many different ways throughout their course:
Exams are specific to the teaching cycle: thereafter, students are evaluated mainly through case studies, role-plays and project presentations.
Each placement requires a report to be written demonstrating that the relevant skills have been acquired.
In the 5th year, students submit an End of Studies Thesis (EST) and defend it before a jury composed of two professors. The validation of the EST is one of the requirements for the diploma.
More generally, we use the following six levels of cognitive skill to evaluate our students:
- Understand: quizzes, pairing exercises, etc.
- Recognise / Know: quizzes, pairing exercises, etc.
- Apply: (practical exercises, simulations, etc.)
- Analyse: (problem-solving, case studies, etc.)
- Evaluate: (case studies, reviews, etc.)
- Create: (projects, etc.)
Professors award bonus points for active participation in class or in remote sessions when students contribute to a discussion forum.

TESTIMONIALS
WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY ABOUT US
-
Victoire HOSSARD Founder of Chichi CastelnangoClass of 2017
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 Corporate Real Estate Consultant at CBREClass of 2018
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 Cofounder of OANI - To The Wall & BeyondClass of 2018
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 TABONEClass of 2019
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.

Mohamed OUMENKHACHEClass of 2023
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.

Nicolas RIEUL Directeur Général de la zone Europe du Sud chez CriteoPromotion 2011
Directeur Général de la zone Europe du Sud chez Criteo
Diplômé de la promotion 2011, spécialité “management international”, je suis aujourd’hui directeur général de Criteo en France.
C’est une entreprise qui est capable de rivaliser avec les plus grands de la publicité en ligne, comme Google ou Facebook, et qui est même leader sur le segment de la génération de ventes en ligne pour les e-commerçants. Je suis également président de l’IAB, une organisation professionnelle qui traite des problématiques de la publicité en ligne.
Cette thématique des nouvelles technologies me passionne. Quand on est passionné, on ne compte pas ses heures, on n’a pas l’impression de travailler. Cela permet de se donner au maximum, de se dépasser et de sortir du lot.
Dans ma carrière, j’ai aussi pu m’appuyer sur l’esprit d’entreprendre que j’ai trouvé à l’EDC Paris Business School, cette envie d’avoir un impact. Quand on crée sa société, c’est génial, mais réussir à garder cet état d’esprit au sein d’une entreprise où l’on est salarié, c’est un grand atout, et c’est pour cela qu’il faut rejoindre l’EDC. Je suis d’ailleurs le parrain de la promotion 2025 et je pense très fort à eux, je suis heureux de les accompagner.
