Online degrees and certificates adapted to all your needs

Is an online diploma recognised?

The diploma received at the end of an online programme has the same value as an in-person diploma. The diploma received is the official recognition of the training, supported by official documents, and demonstrates the knowledge and skills acquired.

At the end of an online course with EDHEC, you receive a diploma from a business school ranked #7 in Europe (Financial Times ranking, 2022), and triply accredited (EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA), a guarantee of the academic excellence of the programmes, the quality of the teaching staff, as well as its close links with companies. Our diplomas are also recognised by companies on a global scale.
