The EDHEC (École des Hautes Études Commerciales), the ONN (Olympique Nice Natation), and the UPE (Union for Businesses) of the Alpes-Maritimes signed the agreement for high-level athletes on Saturday.
A meeting is scheduled between the three organizations at the Jean Bouin Pool to formalize the agreement. The purpose of this agreement is simple: to allow ONN members to combine their sports careers with higher education and thus promote the professionalization of the club’s managers and technical staff. EDHEC is renowned for its excellent business training and its pursuit of innovation through its various programs.
The numbers speak for themselves. EDHEC represents 6,000 students and no fewer than 10,000 executives in continuous training. The group offers numerous pathways with 17 programs, the most well-known being Masters in management, sciences, or even ESPEME (École supérieure de management des entreprises), a post-baccalaureate program. The group today has a budget of 75 million euros, with one-third coming from companies and 20% invested in research.
Five campuses (Lille, Nice, Paris, London, and Singapore) where no fewer than 134 permanent professors and 810 adjunct instructors work. At the end of your studies, you can be accredited by EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System), AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), and AMBA (Association of MBAs).
Given Yannick Agnel’s political, philosophical, and literary culture, it is difficult to imagine that the 20-year-old swimmer wouldn’t take advantage of such an opportunity.
