EFMD (EUROPEAN FOUNDATION FOR MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT) RENEWS EOCCS CERTIFICATION OF EXCELLENCE FOR THE QUALITY OF DIGITAL EDUCATION OF POLIMI GRADUATE SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT 

The educational offer dedicated to management training provided in full digital mode by the Politecnico business school confirms its international excellence

POLIMI Graduate School of Management, the business school that is part of the School of Management of Politecnico di Milano, has obtained the renewal of EOCCS (EFMD Online Course Certification System) certification for its courses provided in digital learning in Executive MBAs. EOCCS is an elite assessment system reserved for online courses and created by EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development), the most prestigious institution at European level in the promotion of management training and development.

EOCCS certification, which has a three-year duration, was awarded to the Innovation Management course, within the framework of the International Flex Executive MBA, and to the Supply Chain Management and Purchasing course, which is instead part of the Flex Executive MBA programme in Italian. This achievement is an important reconfirmation of the quality of the digital training provided by the School, considering that both courses had received certification for the first time in 2017, and were then recertified in 2020.

Vittorio Chiesa and Federico Frattini, respectively President and Dean of the Milanese POLIMI Graduate School of Management, declared: “We have a long tradition in digital learning that dates back to 2014, with the launch of the first Flex Executive MBA. Three years later, in 2017, we were the first Italian school to obtain EOCCS certification. Today, there are only 60 courses in the world that can boast this prestigious recognition and they are provided by 20 business schools based in 11 different countries. Being part of this inner circle fills us with pride and represents an incentive to do even better to ensure the highest quality standards for our students who choose an educational experience in digital learning.”

EOCCS certification constitutes a further guarantee of quality within the educational portfolio dedicated to digital courses, testifying to the high standard of the School’s management training programmes, their alignment with the needs of the working world and the ability to prepare students to face future professional challenges.
