Our Story
Created 50 years ago in the forest of Fontainebleau, CEDEP is an executive education club built by and for its member companies. The member companies are based all over the world and come from a diverse set of industries.
We come together to share best practices, develop networks and work in the mutual interest to improve tomorrow’s organisations.
What do our members say about us?
“What brought us together 40 years ago, and has given us the opportunity to (continue) today, is above all a common vision of what a company should be. It is a vision of a humanistic company. A company which has a fundamental belief in the human being. A company which is convinced that it has a mission to enable men and woman to surpass themselves and to continually improve.”
Jean-Paul Agon, CEO, L’Oréal
“What I particularly like about CEDEP is that it gets managers from the various member companies that belong to the club to meet and talk. These exchanges are very exciting for those who attend these courses and always generate new ideas as well as opening up the mind of participants to other environments.”
Robert Brunck, Chairman of CGGVeritas
