Presided over by Michel-Edouard Leclerc, the school has the status of a Consular Higher Education Institution (EESC).

Grandes écoles are elite academic institutions that admit students through an extremely competitive process, and a significant proportion of their graduates occupy the highest levels of French society.

[6][7] The degrees are accredited by the Conférence des Grandes Écoles[8] and awarded by the Ministry of National Education (France).

[10][11] Those levels of study include various "parcours" or paths based on UE (Unités d'enseignement or Modules), each worth a defined number of European credits (ECTS).

The school teaches its students to apply solid managerial skills in a globalised and multicultural professional environment.

In addition to providing multicultural exposure on its campuses, the curriculums include periods of cultural immersion through student exchanges at its 335 partner schools and in companies abroad.

[13][14] Other Confucius Institutes for Business are notably present in the London School of Economics[15] and the New York State University.

[1] The Startup Lab consists of 3 incubators, 2 specialised accelerators, and a Coding School to support the creation and development of start-ups.
