TBS Education continues its development with a new campus in Paris, at 13, rue Saint Lambert, in the 15^th district.

This new 5,000 m² campus, housed in a former Parisian high school, will have bright classrooms, work rooms, a documentation center, an incubator/coworking space, and 2 amphitheaters, all organized around a tree-lined courtyard of nearly 1,000 m², which will allow students to relax in a quiet space, but also be able to organize festive and cultural events.

“TBS Education is in the process of boosting its attractiveness and our real estate projects are part of our new approach to educational well-being. We are committed to accommodating a greater number of students in premises that reflect our vision of the management school of the future, and that enhance student experience and well-being. We design and build our campuses in cities brimming with professional opportunities so that our students can achieve their full potential”.

— Stéphanie LAVIGNE, Managing Director of TBS Education

The building will be completely renovated, with different phases of work aimed at meeting thermal and regulatory standards, and creating classrooms equipped with state-of-the-art tools. Student well-being will be at the heart of the renovations. This new campus will therefore be a space that’s genuinely conducive to student life.

This campus will offer all our French and international students the opportunity to be right in the heart of the French capital, a major economic centre for Europe and the world, close to the biggest French and international companies. It will also allow our students to join the powerful network of 10,000 TBS Education alumni and thus develop their employability.

IN THE HEART OF EUROPE, IN THE HEART OF THE CITY

Driven by a unique strategy rolled out since 2021, TBS Education has set itself bold and inspiring development objectives: to prioritize educational well-being, to enhance the employability of its learners, and to maximize its societal impact on local areas. To achieve its objectives, TBS Education will draw on brand new campuses, an expert and renowned faculty, new training and employability models, and a stronger international presence.

TBS Education is inventing a whole new kind of campus and investing in academic well-being

TBS Education campuses are living spaces that bring together learning, academic, research, business, entrepreneurial and civic communities. The school’s students thrive on eco-responsible campuses, where conditions are in place to encourage personal transformation and optimum learning.  By 2026, the 4 sites – Toulouse, Barcelona, Casablanca, and Paris – will be equipped with new inspiring buildings to fully integrate into a world in transition. TBS Education is committed to “academic well-being”: the school is an educational innovation laboratory that constantly introduces new knowledge, new teaching methods and tools for a better learning experience. Mirroring its innovative project, Inspiring Guest, which has won national and international awards, the school has introduced humor to stimulate learning.

The school’s four campuses will be connected to companies and socio-economic partners  to cultivate  entrepreneurial spirit, foster local innovation, and share knowledge. Designed to have a positive societal impact and to offer its own experiential learning, they will be resolutely open, inspiring, innovative, and committed.

TBS Education is located in Toulouse, Paris, Barcelona and Casablanca. We place our students at the heart of what Europe does best in terms of technological innovation, economic dynamics, and quality of life. The campuses are ideally located in the city center.

This means less time wasted and more time for living! Close to our campuses, our students can find:

• public transportation (bus, metro), to get around easily
• housing and local services, for a more relaxed lifestyle
• green spaces and relaxation areas, to recharge your batteries in a green setting.

The Paris campus offers students on the Master in Management program the chance to do the Master 1 and Master 2 as in apprenticeship course.

Toulouse has again been named the best French city for students. It retained the top spot in the 2022-2023 ranking by the publication L’Étudiant.

For the 7th time since its 2013 edition, L’Étudiant has placed Toulouse in first position.

Toulouse is France’s fourth biggest student city after Paris, Lyon and Lille. With nearly 130,000 French and international students, the quality of student life is a high priority for the Toulouse metropolis in terms of transportation, outings, sports activities, housing etc.

And Toulouse has no shortage of attractions and boasts excellent quality of life: sunshine, history, lifestyle, salaries, economic dynamism, atmosphere and not forgetting the sexiest accent in France!

Toulouse in a few pictures

TBS Education, accompanied by its majority shareholder, the CCI Toulouse Haute-Garonne, and by Toulouse Métropole, is getting ready to write a new chapter in its history, with the imminent launch of the construction of the new campus located in downtown Toulouse.

This new stage follows the granting of a building permit in May 2022.

Work on this ambitious 30,000m² project, which will be able to accommodate more than 4,500 students simultaneously in new generation teaching spaces, is scheduled to start at the end of 2022 for operation in 2026.

BACK TO THE PROJECT OF A UNIQUE TBS EDUCATION CAMPUS IN TOULOUSE

Founded in Toulouse in 1903 by the CCI Toulouse Haute-Garonne, the historic Toulouse Business School, TBS Education, has now an international reach through its campuses in Barcelona, Casablanca and Paris, while maintaining a strong local presence.

With a turnover of 55 million euros and 6,000 students trained each year, the school is now present in “la ville rose” on two campuses: the Lascrosses campus comprising 5 buildings, in the heart of the city center in the Compans-Caffarelli district, and the Entiore campus in the commune of Quint-Fonsegrives. To meet its strategic development ambitions and to offer a study environment which is always more adapted to its students, TBS Education wanted to bring together all its Toulouse activities within a single campus, a forerunner of new learning practices and focused on its educational community.

Privileged spaces will be dedicated to associative activities, student life, business projects (incubator), and sports activities. They will be equipped with state-of-the-art facilities to develop even more innovative teaching formats. The building has also been designed in compliance with the strictest standards in terms of Sustainable Development and Social Responsibility, a founding pillar of the strategy of TBS Education, which has recently become a mission-led company. It won the call for projects “NoWatt Buildings in Occitania” launched by the Occitania Region, which aims to support innovative construction and renovation projects. With this new campus, designed by the Portuguese architecture agency Francisco Aires Mateus, the new generation management school as conceived by TBS Education is becoming a reality.

To build the entire new campus, which will be owned by TBS Education, a budget of 120 million euros has been invested over five years, including financial support from the Regional Council of 6,5 million euros and the transfer of the land by Toulouse Métropole. Delayed by Covid-19, the project’s new provisional schedule calls for work to begin at the end of 2022 and the final campus to be delivered in 2026.

“I am delighted with the cooperation on this major project. With our four campuses and a network of more than 240 partner universities worldwide, we are a school open to the world, but we are also attached to our historic region, and this ambitious program demonstrates our desire to participate in its economic development. We have imagined this new campus in the image of our school: inspiring, innovative, sustainable, and inclusive. Located in the heart of downtown Toulouse, this 30,000 m² building, designed to be open to its neighborhood, will be a true place of living and will become a model both in terms of teaching and architecture. Therefore, I am proud of this project, and particularly of the collaboration with Toulouse Métropole, the CCI Toulouse Haute-Garonne, the Occitania Region and all the other stakeholders. Together, we are strengthening the attractiveness of our territory.”

Stéphanie Lavigne, Managing Director of TBS Education

“TBS Education contributes to the balance of the Training – Research – Employment triptych, which is essential to preserve and maintain our dynamic and to keep our rank as the 2nd student city in France, after Paris. The project carried out by TBS Education with the support of the CCI Toulouse Haute-Garonne, in partnership with Toulouse Métropole, takes into consideration the needs of the district’s inhabitants by proposing new local facilities and services. The sports teams and clubs have found a new renovated site at Léo Lagrange to prepare for future exploits. The project also considers environmental issues by requiring the reuse of deconstructed elements in the new premises to come. For Toulouse Metropole, supporting the development strategy of the historic management school TBS Education is perfectly in line with our local ambition.”

Jean-Luc Moudenc, Mayor of Toulouse and President of Toulouse Métropole

A PROJECT MANAGEMENT THAT CARES ABOUT THE IMPACT ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Attentive to the impact that these new buildings will have on the Compans-Caffarelli neighborhood, TBS Education has joined forces with the PALANCA study and consultation office. Together, they have conducted, and continue to conduct, a consultation process with the various stakeholders in the project (associations, residents, students, shopkeepers, sports players, businesses etc.) to anchor the campus in the neighborhood. An informative and participatory website was created for the occasion, and a public meeting and specific workshops were also set up. Everyone was able to find meaning in this project, whether it was the development and opening of the esplanade, campus life, neighborhood activities (recycling center, vegetable baskets, community cafe etc.), future community life (creation of a community center), the greening of the building, and many other topics.

From an environmental point of view, some of the materials from the deconstruction of the small sports hall will be used for the construction of the new buildings and other constructions in the metropolis. Finally, the sports activities that were still being carried out in the big palace will be able to continue and the clubs will be relocated.

“I would particularly like to thank Toulouse Métropole for having supported this project from the outset. The campus in downtown Toulouse is the birthplace of TBS Education, which is why we wanted to give it special attention. It joins the new campus in Barcelona and soon in Casablanca, making TBS Education a school resolutely turned towards the international scene. In a context of strong competition, the school has now an attractive campus that allows it to differentiate itself from other management schools. Attractiveness that will also benefit our region by training the leaders of tomorrow.”  

Patrick Piedrafita, President of the CCI Toulouse Haute-Garonne, member of the Board of Directors of TBS Education

For the first time this year, the TBS Library team was able to meet all the new arrivals of B1 during a new Research Initiation module on the 3 TBS campuses (Toulouse, Barcelona, ​​Casablanca).

It was essential for us to be present from the start of their course to introduce them to the library and allow them to appropriate the tools essential for their thinking about a future professional and their academic work.

Should we list all the databases in the Library ?! Boring! Yet another training in supra-theoretical documentary methodology ?! Boring!

The idea of ​​creating a game and making documentary research fun then emerged. After all: couldn’t we approach research from a more fun angle? Our shock team then seized the constraints (limited time, large student volume, very theoretical elements to be transmitted, etc.) and demonstrated creativity to make this special moment of the year a constructive and pleasant one.

To do this, we have therefore partnered with the teaching teams as well as at the service of innovation and pedagogy. Together we have targeted educational objectives, scripted and invented tests, tested and used innovative digital tools.

On your research, get set … Go! “In search of resources” is the name of the game, plunges students into the role of the intern who must respond to all of his boss’s requests in a very short time. And God knows that the boss has a lot of things to ask him… Avoid fake news, find an AFNOR standard, choose the most reliable site, find the figures of a consumer survey… Throughout the activity the student will have to navigate in different databases, check their sources and avoid the traps set by the boss. Obviously the boss will know how to reward him in his quest! Hm .. or maybe not ?!

At the end of the session, the students were invited to share their thoughts on the game. The feedback could not have been more positive and satisfying for the whole team! + 90% of them felt more comfortable finding information and browsing the Library’s site and doing a search in its databases: mission accomplished!

We look forward to coming back next year and the following years with other ideas for the game, to enrich and make it even more complex. This is also a Library: a playground for the mind, renewed access to knowledge, a help and support service.
