Once an ebster, always an ebster

Not only do EBS graduates often find their way back to their alma mater to pursue further studies or training, but alumni also go on to join the ranks of EBS’s faculty and lecturers.

Among the former ebsters who have been teaching current ebsters for years are lecturers Priit Karjus, Aet Toots, Anu Lehing and Marge Täks and Professor Ülle Pihlak.

EBS involves its alumni regularly, for example as speakers in the Introweek programme aimed at new students, as well as guest lecturers and in admission interviews. The school has also set up a mentoring programme to give alumni the chance to share their ideas and knowledge with MBA students. In the best possible sense, you might say that EBS is like a spider’s web you get stuck in for a long time.

Entrepreneur and EBS alumnus Hardi Kinnas neatly sums this up. “The network that’s built up at EBS over the last 35 years is a mighty one,” he says.
