Edinburgh Business School at Heriot-Watt University is proud to announce that People, Work and Organisations, a core course within our online MBA suite of programmes, has been granted accreditation by the prestigious EFMD Online Course Certification System (EOCCS).
This recognition underscores our innovative approach to online education and the programme’s commitment to accessibility, flexibility, and excellence.
The EOCCS accreditation, awarded by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD), is an international quality benchmark and is testament to Edinburgh Business School's dedication to delivering high-quality, practice-oriented, internationally- recognised online learning. This endorsement signifies that this course meets rigorous standards for content quality and technological delivery.
We are delighted to have received EOCCS certification for one of our core MBA modules, People, Work and Organisations. Our online offering is core to delivering Edinburgh Business School’s mission of providing practice-oriented, accessible business education and it is encouraging to receive peer recognition of the quality of our online course and the systems that support it. Undertaking the EOCCS process has been invaluable in confirming what we do well and identifying how we can continually enhance our student’s learning experience.
The People, Work and Organisations online course enables students to gain an understanding of the factors which influence how people behave at work and how these link to performance. Students can investigate the differences between individuals, how organisational factors affect individual behaviour, and how these differences affect group dynamics. Students will walk away with the practical skills and research-backed knowledge to positively impact on individual, team, and organisational performance in a variety of dynamic business contexts.
This accreditation recognises Edinburgh Business School’s extensive experience and expertise in online learning and further solidifies our position as a leader in online education for students from around the globe seeking a rigorous qualification to enhance their career.
