The diversity of students in term of origin and background
“What struck me more was the diversity of students in term of origin and background and the networking you get by liaising with ex alumni, mentors of the program. They were all very happy to receive you and share their experiences when you are student and even afterwards.”

This network helped her to land a permanent contract in the sector
Maeva initially trained in finance, so the world of culture was not an obvious career path. But that wasn't going to stop her! Her passion for music drove her to persevere, and as soon as she joined the Specialized course "Management of Arts and Creative Industries", she wanted to find a music label. Sociable and ambitious by nature, she soon met many people working in arts and culture in Bordeaux, and it was this network that helped her to land a permanent contract in the sector.
Couldn't have made it without Kedge
"Kedge was rated top #10 business schools in France. Loved the campus when I came in for interviews and loved the hospitality and the city of Marseille which became a second home for me. I discovered marketing while at Kedge and made it a lifetime career. Has been working in the function across CPG and retail for more than 20 years across 5 countries and 4 continents. Couldn't have made it without Kedge. I was also one of the first promos to benefit from the 'Contrat en Alternance' where you spend 3 days in school and 2 in enterprise. This enabled me to learn fast how to work in a corporation and be able to adapt and bring immediate value to the company that hired me after graduation. Kedge created a sense of community for me that I try to bring in any new role and city I move to. It helped me to adapt to different situations, be more open-minded and emphatic.
Lifetime friends. Sense of community and belonging and a love for the city of Marseille and its iconic soccer team."
Since starting the MBA, my life has completely change
"I started the Executive MBA last November. I was extremely apprehensive. I didn't know what I was getting myself into but I knew I needed a change. I've been in middle management for a long time. I've been a found raiser for the past 12 years of my life and I was looking to become a leader, more than just a manager. Since starting the MBA, my life has completely changed. My skills of growing, my soft skills, have come along leaps and bounds. I'm actually starting a new job in leadership, back in London, in January to say that the cage MBA has been transformational. Seems like an understatement when I consider all the changes and the journey that I've been on. I couldn't recommend it enough, just do it !"
I wanted to have a step back on my career and improve my skills.
"I was a project manager for about 15 years in a global transportation company. I wanted to have a step back on my career and to go back to school in order to improve my hard and soft skills. I decided to choose 海角社区 MBA because of its humans’ values and top of the range teachers in the programme, but also because of the persons I met in 海角社区.
Doing an MBA is a huge transformation. It’s not only about the quality of the course but I chose 海角社区 also about the people at 海角社区. You met crazy and open-minded people from all around the world with great experience and it is very valuable for me. Of course, you must be prepared for that. Doing an MBA is a huge work, a lot of energy, it is sacrifices. But it is also joy. You feel that you grow yourself. You can go and reach the next stage. You really feel it. It is a real chance for me to have this experience and if I have only one advice: make you this gift, do an MBA!"
Explore the city of wine
I wanted to explore the city of wine. Bordeaux attracted me a lot and the school was world ranked…Our teachers are really well prepared to give the courses. They are really interesting, with a wide offer of topics in such specific areas like Luxury Marketing, Tourism and of course Wine Management… For me, Bordeaux is like a huge museum…This is the French way of living! With my roomies, we explored the city. It was so nice to share these moments with my new friends.

It is a true privilege to have been a student at Kedge, and a member of the summer study abroad in Marseille
The timing of every special event, the process, the transportation, the lunches/dinners and every little piece that went into making each day one of the best days of our lives :) It is a true privilege to have been a student at Kedge, and a member of the summer study abroad in Marseille. My perception of the world has been enlightened and enriched in so many ways. Beauty defines itself in a more elaborate form, with visions unimaginable. I have seen culture I could only dream of, I have tasted food I will never forget, I have stepped foot in castles, looked up at cliffs 50 X my size, and tasted the salty Mediterranean. I have breathed the French air and felt the atmosphere all around me. In the end, I have been left with a kaleidoscope of experiences I will be forever grateful for.
