A word from the sponsor ◆
"The world is changing,
education must change."
Albert does more than prepare for a job. Our raison d'être is to train the talents that will make a difference.
In the age of data, the school prepares tomorrow's leaders to acquire the key skills of the 21st century. Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Youtube, and the use of smartphones have revolutionized the world and the way we interact.
Behind these platforms and concepts, there are new ways of communicating, doing business, teaching and understanding the world, which require a change in mindset.
Grégoire Genest | CEO and co-founder of Albert School
Why award an RNCP title rather than a Bachelor or Master degree?
The RNCP 6 and 7 titles are recognized diplomas of Bac+3 and Bac+5 level. The Ministry of Labor is responsible for these degrees.
The Bachelor's degree and the Master's degree are under the supervision of the Ministry of Higher Education and Research.
The Commission d'évaluation des formations et diplômes de gestion (CEFDG) is in charge of evaluating the training of private higher education institutions in order to authorize them to deliver the grade de licence or the grade de master.
For both the Bachelor's and Master's degrees, one of the most important criteria is:
"The school must have 50% of PhDs on its permanent teaching staff. [CEFDG evaluation reference]
One of the two pillars of Albert School is to be as close as possible to the business world. Thus, our professors (except in mathematics, an associate professor) are senior executives and experts involved in the business world. From marketing director to investment banker to entrepreneur: they can teach our students about the operational reality of the company.
An RNCP title allows its holder to prove the achievement of skills, abilities and knowledge.

Admission session calendar
Applications to the MSc Albert School for the start of the 2023 academic year have been open since September 20, 2022.
Albert School is implementing a "rolling" admission system. This system allows students to apply at any time of the year and to obtain an answer within 15 days of the beginning of their application.
As a result of the rolling admissions system, the end of the recruitment calendar is not known in advance: recruitment for a program stops when all the places for that program have been allocated.
Typically, the campaigns are never closed before January 1 of the year of the start of the school year. It should be noted, however, that the greater the number of applicants, the greater the level of selectivity.
To find out if there are any places left in the program you are interested in, start your registration and fill in the desired program. If the program is not displayed as complete, it means that there are still places available.
