We think a degree closes something. It only opens the way to a lasting career, provided you keep learning.
After my specialised Master at business school, I took a university diploma in entrepreneurship, then conference cycles at the Sorbonne. Not for the line on the CV: to keep thinking and learning. Once your studies are behind you, you have the luxury of choosing precise specialities to broaden your skills, and that is valuable.
A French university diploma is issued by the university itself, and that is precisely what gives it value: on a CV, the faculty’s name stands behind your training. It can be taken alongside a job, in almost any field, without starting over.
Conference cycles bring together recognised experts over a full semester, on site or remotely. Few people know they are open to everyone.
Why this belongs to personal branding: expertise that stops evolving shows. In the way you talk about your work, in the examples you give, in the references you draw on. Learning is how you maintain what your image promises.
A concrete case
In 2025, ten public-speaking conferences at the Sorbonne for €90. Ten hours of exceptional teaching, for the price of a dinner.
Your image deserves the same work.
A first conversation, no commitment, to take stock of your image.
