Each year, we carefully coordinate the programme to minimise overlap between similar business cases. When necessary, companies working on related topics are scheduled on different days. Sharing your topic with us early in the preparation phase helps us prevent potential conflicts.

Yes. As the Master's programme is taught entirely in English, participants should feel comfortable communicating in English, even if they do not use it on a daily basis.

Yes. Attendance at the online Kick-Off meeting is mandatory. It is an opportunity to prepare your business case within the EDHEC pedagogical framework, review the project timeline, ask practical questions and meet the EDHEC team as well as the other partner companies.
Two online coaching sessions with the student teams are also scheduled. These sessions are the manager's only opportunity to interact with all teams before the final presentation, clarify expectations, answer questions and encourage deeper thinking. We strongly recommend that the manager leading the case personally facilitates these sessions rather than delegating them.

We recommend that two business representatives participate throughout the seminar. They may be accompanied by an HR representative during the exchanges with students. If no HR representative is present, business representatives should be prepared to answer questions about career opportunities and effectively showcase their company's involvement in the programme.
