UNYP achieves EFMD membership

UNYP is proud to announce that it has achieved full membership in the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). The EFMD is globally recognized as an accrediting body for business schools and business programs, and UNYP’s full membership is the first step towards accreditation by this prestigious institution.

EFMD provides its members with a wide range of targeted learning, networking and professional development services. EFMD runs networks and activities intended for deans, undergraduates, masters and doctoral education, on subjects that include external relations, career services, research, entrepreneurship, responsible leadership, and management education in Africa and the Middle East, Asia and the Americas. EFMD also organizes advisory seminars/webinars covering key issues for schools, virtual fairs, and a job fair for PhDs in Business and Management, as well as providing access to publications, international projects, different accreditation and certification systems, case writing and doctoral research awards.

Sotiris Karagiannis, the Director for Graduate Programs at UNYP, comments:

“UNYP is now a member of one of the greatest and largest networks of universities across the globe. EFMD member institutions meet high quality standards and are distinguished for their academic provision and dedication to their students, faculty and staff. This is the first, bold step towards applying for EFMD accreditation of the UNYP MBA, which has been our flagship program for the last 20 years.”

This membership is a result of our continuous effort to maintain the highest level of business education at UNYP and a truly unique MBA program that delivers tangible value from day one. UNYP’s MBA program also accommodates student career options by delivering concentrations in Management, Entrepreneurship, Finance, Marketing, and Global Business Services. This program is one of a kind, as it also offers a unique approach called “G.R.O.W to Flow” which helps students implement classroom theories in the workplace in real time through a targeted coaching program tailored to the needs of each student.
