The program exposed me to a wide array of topics I had never before considered. This has helped me to make a personal transition from a professional in my field to a manager with the ability to see a much bigger picture from a business perspective, and to understand organizational choices and motivations which at times had completely baffled me."

There are many business schools in the Paris area, and in Europe at large, but ISM was the only school that perfectly fit my needs: a flexible combination of on-site classes and remote self learning. During my time at ISM I had the pleasure of meeting and studying with extraordinary people from all over the world, and learning both on and off site from teachers of the highest quality, bringing with them important real-world experience.

As a student who came to ISM with a science degree and a purely technical work experience, the program exposed me to a wide array of topics I had never before considered. This has helped me to make a personal transition from a professional in my field to a manager with the ability to see a much bigger picture from a business perspective, and to understand organizational choices and motivations which at times had completely baffled me.

Today I am the senior information security specialist at the OECD, leading a team of professionals in charge of all information security aspects of a large international organization. During my time in ISM, I have learned valuable management skills I require and utilize on a daily basis.
