BSIS
Business School Impact System
IAE NANCY School of Management, École Universitaire de Management, embarked on the BSIS certification process in 2018. It renewed its BSIS label in 2024.
The BSIS system has made it possible to identify, analyse and quantify the extent and nature of IAE NANCY’s impact on its environment (city, region, country, etc. depending on the areas of impact analysed).
The audit conducted with the Collegium Lorraine Management Innovation spanned an entire year (2018 -2019) and involved all the IAE NANCY teams (teaching and administrative).
The BSIS system
The BSIS identifies the benefits, both tangible and intangible, that a business school brings to its local environment as a result of its teaching activities. The business school spends money in its impact zone; it buys goods and services: it provides jobs and pays salaries which are partly spent in this zone. It attracts students from outside its zone, who also spend money on their day-to-day needs, on food and accommodation.
Beyond the purely financial impact that a business school has on the economic life of its local environment, which can be measured or estimated quantitatively, it contributes to the economic and cultural life of its community in a number of ways. Its teaching staff generate the creation of new businesses through entrepreneurial projects and respond to the needs of local businesses through professional training and managerial development. Its students are a source of dynamism in the life of the region and constitute a valuable pool of talent once they graduate.
Our certificate is displayed on the reception window of our 2 buildings, Campus Manufacture and Campus Artem.
