Esccom Borgo

What Esccom Borgo does

Esccom Borgo is the Corsican campus of the Esccom Group, a private French higher-education institution operating as SARL ECOLE SUPERIEURE DE COMMERCE ET DE COMMUNICATION (RCS Nice 383 704 319, headquarters at 22 Rue El Nouzah, Nice). The Borgo site was opened in 2024–2025 as the group's first footprint on Corsica, extending a 40-year-old network that today comprises six schools and training centers across Nice, Cannes, and Borgo, and runs roughly 50 professionalizing programs from Bac+2 to Bac+5. The curriculum is built around state-recognized RNCP-certified degrees in commerce, marketing, communication, HR, accounting, real estate, and entrepreneurship, structured as either BTS two-year diplomas (e.g., MCO, CG, Gestion de la PME), Bachelor degrees (Marketing Digital, RH, Développement Commercial, Patrimoine Immobilier, DCG), or Mastère Professionnel programs (Stratégie de Marque et Communication Digitale; Développement d'Entreprise et Entrepreneuriat).

The teaching model is delivered entirely in person at physical campuses. Students follow one of two formats: alternance (work-study apprenticeship, 2 days school / 3 days company) or formation scolaire (school-based). Roughly 98% of students are in the alternance track, meaning tuition is funded by apprenticeship contracts with hiring companies (via French OPCO mechanisms) rather than paid directly by students. The remaining school-based students pay tuition at rates disclosed only on request. A distinct "Learning Expedition" program bundles international mobility — trips to Athens, Valencia, Malta, and Casablanca with master classes and corporate visits — into the curriculum at no extra charge, serving as a recruiting differentiator.

Commercial operations are event-driven: prospective students are recruited via open days (JPO Avenir), informal networking events (Apéro-Avenir), individual appointments, social media (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook), and direct website inquiry forms. The Borgo campus carries Qualiopi certification (N° 2021/95255.5, Bureau Veritas), a French regulatory prerequisite for any training provider drawing on public apprenticeship funding, and operates alongside wholly-owned group subsidiaries — Esccom Formation Professionnelle (adult retraining), Esccom Académie Culinaire (culinary arts), and FLC Formation (job-seeker training) — that extend the brand into adjacent vertical segments.
