Online Certificate Programs
Find out more about our first interactive online certificate program and watch this space for further developments in 2024 as we work towards offering more innovative programs that respond to the demand for online alternatives, whilst ensuring a dynamic, interactive environment and cohort.
Our next interactive online program will be held from 28th February to 7th April 2025.
Admissions Information for Online Certificate Programs
The admissions process occurs on a rolling basis for eligible candidates. Applications will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee on fixed dates. These are specified in the How To Apply section of the program in question. Applicants will be informed of decisions within 48 hours following the admissions jury.
Upon receiving an offer of admissions, you will have 2 weeks to confirm your application and make your program payment. In the case of a late application, a shorter time period may apply.
Pre-requisites
Like our Summer Programs, these interactive online certificate programs are open to students at masters and undergraduate level, or recent graduates in the early stage of their career. Applicants are therefore expected to be between 18 - 30years of age and to have completed at least one year of undergraduate studies at the time of the program. Young professionals without significant experience in the field are welcome to apply.
Language of Instruction
The program will be taught in English. Applicants whose native language is not English will be required to submit proof of proficiency in English. Native speakers and C1 speakers will gain maximum benefit from the online program, also due to its interactive nature.
In the case of undergraduate studies that were taught entirely in English, a transcript will be sufficient as documentation.
Fees
There is a €50 non-refundable application fee.
The academic fees for this program are €1900
for students and young professionals.
Scholarships
We are delighted to announce that we have secured additional funding for a limited number of merit-based scholarships for our online programs. These will range up to €500.
You can apply to be considered for a merit-based scholarship by submitting a personal statement with your application, elaborating on why you think you deserve to be awarded such a scholarship.
Reductions
We grant a 10% reduction on our academic fees for the following categories:
- HEC Paris alumni or their children
- Former participants of the HEC Paris Summer School
- Siblings of a current HEC Paris student
