Aware of the important role our schools and teams play in society by training responsible, skilled and caring citizens, Eureka Education adopted the status of “société à mission” (mission-driven company) in September 2022, in accordance with the French PACTE law.
“Sharing knowledge and skills to build sustainable employability, for people, society and the planet.”
This purpose, embedded in our corporate statutes, guides the actions of Eureka Education and all its schools. As a mission-driven company, we place social and environmental impact at the core of our strategy, preparing responsible and skilled professionals for a constantly evolving world.
Since 2013, our development has been driven by a shared ambition: to transmit knowledge and skills in support of sustainable employability.
Sustainability has always been a guiding principle for the Group. By training more than 46,000 learners annually across France, Spain and the United Kingdom, in sectors with strong employment prospects, we contribute to the environmental, economic and societal transformations that are shaping the future.
For Eureka Education, sustainability is not an option. It is a fundamental principle.
Guiding every learner towards success, in a learning environment that is inclusive and inspiring.
We make training more accessible and open up career-focused higher education to everyone, in particular through work-study programmes, chosen by 75% of our learners. Every learner benefits from personalised support provided by more than 150 dedicated staff members: academic advisers, careers services, disability officers and psychological support. Our Smart Learning by Eureka® model strengthens learner engagement through instructional design, with 120 professionals already trained.
Passing on the knowledge it takes to build a sustainable future.
More than 80% of our programmes include at least one module dedicated to social and environmental issues. The IMPACT training course, available as e-learning on the My Eureka platform, gives every student a shared foundation of knowledge on social and ecological challenges. A network of eco-delegates drives CSR initiatives on our campuses, and every year the Eureka Impact Challenge invites learners to design projects with a positive, measurable impact.
Leading by example, with practices that respect people and the planet.
We embody a governance that respects people: gender equality in the workplace, balanced representation in our leadership bodies, and a code of conduct backed by a whistleblowing system. Our procurement policy includes environmental and social criteria, with a responsible purchasing charter signed by our suppliers and a gradual switch of our campuses to green energy. Finally, we regularly measure our carbon footprint and are rolling out an action plan to reduce it, with a target of -40% by 2030, in line with the Paris Agreement.
The success of our mission relies on two complementary bodies.
The Steering Committee
Made up of representatives from our schools and central departments, it turns the mission into strategies, action plans and tangible results. It oversees the roll-out of the mission across all the group’s entities, encourages the sharing of best practices and ensures consistency between local projects and strategic priorities.
The Mission Committee
A true “keeper of the course”, the Mission Committee makes sure the group’s decisions and initiatives remain fully aligned with our purpose and statutory objectives. It is made up of six members with complementary expertise (group employees, external experts and a student) and chaired by Erwan Poiraud, Director of Educational Innovation, Quality and CSR at Eureka Education. It meets at least twice a year to review progress, issue recommendations and contribute to drafting and approving the annual Mission Report.
As required by the PACTE law, an independent body regularly checks that we are keeping our commitments. Its opinion is published alongside the Mission Report.
