History When EBS was founded in 1988, it was the first institution in Estonia to introduce diploma business education. Since business administration did not exist in soviet universities, there was no teaching tradition, no faculty and no textbooks: a difficult starting position. Besides university, Estonian Business School Group has established EBS High School in 1997 and Executive Training Center in 1993. To give the students an international experience, EBS signed a Double diploma agreement with Lancaster University Management School in 2007. In 2010 EBS got licensed for unlimited term to run study programmes on bachelor, master and doctoral level in the field of business administration, which made us the only private university in Estonia. A year later, 2011, EBS opened a campus in Helsinki, Finland. In 2016 EBS English-language Bachelor’s level International Business Administration study programme became the first in Estonia to receive EPAS accreditation, which is among the highest level recognition business programmes can receive. EPAS accreditation is awarded by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). Alumni EBS is proud of and respects all of its alumni. There are photos of all alumni on the walls of the school, not only of those who have gained public recognition. It is impossible to cut in stone “artists of life”, entrepreneurs or academicians, because every person has their invaluable contribution to the society to make.

According to recent research, the EBS alumni have been one of the most successful university graduates in Estonia. Quarter of the respondents have received a better job offer due to the received education. The success of its alumni has been the best recognition to the business school,“ assured rector, prof Arno Almann.
