Participants who have actively taken part in the whole IEMBA programme and have successfully presented all examinations and the oral defense of their Business Project will be issued with a « university certificate in International Executive MBA » worth 60 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System).

While this certificate is in itself a valuable addition to the participant’s academic records, the credits of this certificate, if validated by the examination board of a subsequent academic programme elsewhere in Europe can be utilised in that programme.
Participation in all sessions without successfully presenting a Business Project or 2 study trips will result in the issue of a certificate of attendance.
The Business Project consists of applying the specific managerial tools studied during the IEMBA programme to solve a specific problem in your company or to develop a business plan with the support of LSM Faculty.

It requires a brief written report (which may be confidential) and an oral presentation to a Jury of the results, with the recommendations for the company.
