Accreditations

Does HEC Liège and its courses have a broad international reputation?

HEC Liège – Management School of the University of Liège is the first complete Belgian business school (from bachelor to doctorate, including executive education) to be doubly accredited by AACSB and EQUIS.

In May 2026, HEC Liège was reaccredited by EQUIS for a period of five years — the maximum duration granted by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) under the EQUIS accreditation program, one of the most rigorous accreditations for international business schools.

In recognition of the quality of its courses, HEC Liège is also a member of the highly selective Conférence des Grandes Écoles.

Additionally, HEC Liège has obtained affiliation with the CFA Institute (Chartered Financial Analyst) for its Master’s program in Banking & Asset Management, an internationally recognized high-level standard in the world of finance.

HEC Liège is certified "Financial Risk Manager" (FRM) by GARP (Global Association of Risks Professionals) for its Master in Business Engineering with a specialization in Financial Engineering, making it one of the academic partners in the GARP international network.
