Triple recognition for the new identity of Clermont SB

Amid an institutional transformation, the School rolled out an ambitious and structured communication plan to support the evolution of its identity. Over the academic year, this strategy was recognized by three major organizations in the sector. These awards reflect a cross-functional team effort, led by the communications department supported by an agency, in close collaboration with the leadership, governance, students, staff, alumni, and external partners.

ARCES Communication Award 2024

In June, the video L’Envol, produced as part of the campaign, won 2nd place (tied) in the Video category at the ARCES Communication Awards (Association of Higher Education Communication Managers) on June 19 in Paris. This poetic film follows Charles, a graduate and professional paragliding pilot, who flies over Clermont-Ferrand and symbolically lands at the Trudaine XL Campus. Through this flight, the School celebrates its core values: ambition, local roots, and momentum toward the future.
