Our ambition: to develop a scial polity that promotes inclusion and contributes to equal opportunity

Our diversity policy is supported by a network of institutions, partner associations and resource people, all contributing through their actions to our commitment to inclusion and equal opportunity.

  • Commitment to inclusion and diversity. In line with its ambitious social policy, TBS Education is a signatory to the CGE’s charter of commitment to inclusion and respect for diversity;
    • Combating discrimination: TBS Education is committed to preventing sexual harassment and sexist, sexual and homophobic violence by setting up initiatives to prevent, report and deal with such situations. These actions are aimed at both students and staff.
    • Diversity at TBS Education: In terms of TBS Education staff, the balance between men and women is 42.3% in the permanent faculty, and over 70% of the members of the restricted management committee are women. Nationality diversity within the school is also significant, with 51 foreign nationals from 28 different countries.
  • Period poverty: According to a 2021 FAGE survey, period poverty affects a third of female students in France. A partnership has been signed between our school, the PRISM student association and Fava, la box des protections intimes, to equip all our Toulouse campuses with free dispensers of 100% organic, eco-responsible and solidarity-based menstrual protection.
  • Equality between men and women: EQUAL.ID is a program designed to help women, men and organizations work together to improve mentalities and behavior. This ambitious project raises students’ awareness of gender inequality in the workplace and combats stereotypes, from the moment they enter TBS Education until they enter the job market.
  • STOP sexual and gender-based violence: At the heart of TBS Education’s values, the fight against all types of discrimination and violence, particularly sexist and sexual violence, must ensure that everyone at the school is respected everywhere and in every situation. Sexist and sexual violence (SGBV) can be defined very briefly as comments, acts or behaviors (physical or non-physical) that target a person’s sex, sexual orientation or gender identity (sexism, harassment, sexual assault, rape, homophobia, transphobia).

What do our students think:

“Student associations allow us to get involved in topics that interest us.”

“It’s a school where we feel good, where everything is done to make our future a success“

“A very active alumni network that provides interesting opportunities and gives me a chance to talk about my future.”

“Numerous international students within the school and option of studying abroad.”

“The chance to develop an important professional network around the word.”

“The kindness of the administration, and professors who help students make the best choices for their careers.”

“Internship opportunities thanks to company networking events.”

“The guest speakers give us a professional perspective, which is great.“

Happy at School

Fighting gender inequality at work means going back to the source. Injustices often go back to the student experience, where they are more pronounced. School is more than just a place of learning, it’s the place where tomorrow’s professionals are forged.

“HappyAtSchool” is a label that rewards student fulfillment in higher education.

The platform attributes the “HappyAtSchool” label based on a student satisfaction survey, and offers an annual ranking that highlights the schools and universities that make a real effort to meet the key expectations of their students, thus highlighting the schools that students prefer and where it’s good to study!

In 2023, TBS Education comes 4th in this ranking.

The methodological approach of the HappyAtSchool label convinced us of the importance of obtaining metrics to improve our learning environment, to better understand the needs and expectations of our students in order to implement specific initiatives and enhance their experience within their study path.

Obtaining this label enables applicants who are particularly sensitive to CSR issues on the one hand, and student wellbeing on the other, to easily recognize schools that, like us, have made these subjects part of their school model. In addition to the renewal of our label, we are proud to have been consistently well ranked among the top business schools , reflecting our commitment to well-being, environmental issues, social inclusiveness and equality between men and women… all issues to which our school has made a solid commitment in terms of pedagogy and associative projects.

Anne RIVIERE, Director of Initial Training

How is the HappyIndex®AtSchool ranking calculated?

Every student can complete the HappyIndex®AtSchool survey on request from their school or student association.

This 21-questions survey calculates 2 values:

  • The average of the 21 questions gives a score /5, known as the “survey score”.
  • A recommendation rate, which is the percentage of students who answered, “somewhat agree” or “strongly agree” to the question “I would recommend my school to a friend to study at”.
  • The survey participation rate is also calculated as follows: number of students who responded / total number of students at the school.

The ranking score is equal to the “questionnaire score” multiplied by 2, then weighted by the participation rate and the recommendation rate:

  • If the participation rate is greater than or equal to 30%, then the coefficient is 1. As soon as this rate decreases, then the coefficient decreases proportionally and lowers the questionnaire score.
  • If the recommendation rate is greater than or equal to 70%, then the coefficient is 1. If this rate decreases, then the coefficient decreases proportionally and lowers the questionnaire score.
  • The formula is 2 × HappyIndex × participation coefficient × recommendation coefficient

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

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.
