First Executive Education Course at the New Downtown Building
20 October 2023
1re formation publique au centre-ville - École des dirigeant(e)s HEC Montréal

In August, Executive Education HEC Montréal moved into its new home in the heart of the city’s business district.

The Certification in Ethics and Compliance (CEC) is the first open-enrolment program to get underway at the Hélène Desmarais Building. An enthusiastic group of 27 professionals gathered on Thursday, September 21, on the seventh floor of the building for the first of nine days of training. The participants enjoyed lively discussions throughout the day in the Varsovie Room, which offers a breathtaking view of the city, and rounded things off in style with a cocktail hour on the rooftop terrace.

Executive Education HEC Montréal’s new facilities in the downtown core feature classrooms that have been equipped with state-of-the-art technology to deliver the best possible learning experience and a layout conducive to small-group discussions and activities.
