July 23, 2014

The Conseil du patronat du Québec and AACSB International (the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) will now be able to draw on the expertise of HEC Montréal Director Michel Patry, as a member of their 2014-2015 boards of directors.

Professor Patry was first appointed to the Board of the Quebec employers council, the Conseil du patronat du Québec, which represents many of Quebec’s largest companies and most sector-based employers’ associations. Its mission is to ensure that businesses have the best possible conditions in order to prosper in Quebec.

The HEC Montréal Director was also elected Secretary-Treasurer of the Board of AACSB International. He is the only Canadian on this committee of world leaders, and this appointment also makes him a member of its Executive Committee. The Association, founded in 1916, is responsible for accrediting over 700 business schools in 47 countries and territories.
