The Quality Department drives and manages the quality process, involving all stakeholders, including teaching staff, administrative staff, and students.
Among the various accreditations, Montpellier Management has focused its choices on national and international certifications such as ISO 9001, QUALICERT and AACSB, as well as the CFET certification for our Hospitality and Tourism training courses.
Academic excellence at Montpellier Management

Montpellier Management is working to achieve AACSB accreditation (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). AACSB is an international distinction that recognizes the most rigorous higher education institutions in terms of academic quality, research, and educational innovation.
Why does AACSB accreditation matter?
- Academic excellence: Accreditation ensures that our programs meet the highest international standards.
- Global Recognition: AACSB is a benchmark in the field of management science, recognized by students, businesses and institutions worldwide.
- Continuous improvement: this approach promotes a culture of innovation and development to stay at the forefront of academic and professional needs.
AACSB accreditation is based on 9 rigorously defined standards, divided into three main categories:

A national certification: QUALICERT

In 2023, Montpellier Management obtained the renewal of its QUALICERT certification “University training and research activity in the fields of management sciences and management”.
A benchmark dedicated to Business Administration Institutes, it is based on criteria such as: initial and continuing training with high added value, competent teaching and administrative teams and proven academic research activity.
An international certification process: ISO 9001 V2015

Montpellier Management, through the University of Montpellier, has committed to implementing the ISO 9001 V2015 standard for student administrative registration. The goal of this certification is to optimize the service provided to users, particularly students, by offering them the best possible reception conditions upon their arrival.
CFET certification for our hotel and tourism training courses

The CFET (Confederation of Excellence in Tourism Training) label helps strengthen the alignment between the content of the best French training courses and the evolving needs and skills of tourism, accommodation and catering companies.
