Dear students, parents and partners,
Today, we have to face what we already faced back in March 2020: a lockdown in France.
Let's think global. Our world is going through a crisis that has profoundly affected the way we work and collaborate for these past few months. With its 7 campuses, SKEMA Business School is an in vivo laboratory of this multicultural world and we trust that our community will embrace the crisis with courage and empathy. Our agility and experience of remote work and study are key assets in these troubled times.
SKEMA's teams are all on board.
From Friday 30th October and following the French President's address, all SKEMA students based on French campuses will attend courses and take exams online. Guidelines will be communicated by each programme.
Let's act local. Currently, our Brazilian campus (Belo Horizonte), our US campus (Raleigh), and our Chinese campus (Suzhou) remain open. Our South African campus (Stellenbosch) is currently closed but should re-open early 2021.
Our Lille, Paris-La Défense and Sophia Antipolis campuses will remain open to implement the continuity plan and support the SKEMA community. For students wishing to come to the campuses for logistical issues (internet access, computer equipment, workspace, etc), rooms for practical work sessions will be available - we will give you all the details in a few days.
We have great faith in our common values of solidarity and reactivity. Despite these times of adversity, I am confident that SKEMA will keep delivering the best experience possible.

Take care of yourself and your loved ones.
Warm regards,
Alice Guilhon
Dean SKEMA Business School
