Video is a particularly well-suited format for a problem that we needed to solve: with eligible candidates unable to visit SKEMA campuses at the moment due to COVID-19 restrictions, suitable alternatives had to be found, wherever possible. As a solution, SKEMA teams have created a range of video mini-series that candidates applying to SKEMA can discover on social media.
Here is a guide to the latest releases:
SKan Box
“SKEMA Belo Horizonte or SKEMA Suzhou?” “Lunges or lounging?”… These are some of the quick-fire questions that SKan Box participants must answer with spontaneity and humour. SKan Box is a new format of short, fast-paced videos featuring our students, staff members, and soon, our professors and alumni.
Caroline Denhez and Pierre Avot inaugurated the format and passed the baton to two SKEMA students, Mathilde Tran and Noam Bounekala.
These first four episodes are available on SKEMA’s Facebook page and
Instagram account.

SKEMA from a distance
Since the physical distancing rules are still in place, SKEMA has implemented several new ways to communicate with applicants, companies and partners.
On the homepages of
www.skema-bs.fr and
www.skema.edu websites, visitors are greeted with a tagline that reflects our current situation: “AT [YOUR] HOME WORLDWIDE”. A section with the heading “EXPLORE SKEMA FROM A DISTANCE” gives visitors access to a selection of online resources according to their profile, to allow them to continue interacting seamlessly with the brand.
Featured among this selection are new ways to discover the global experience offered by the school. These include a
SKEMA GLOBAL EXPERIENCE “flip brochure” to browse through online, enriched with videos and access to our different social media accounts around the world.
