Mazars University

Education is the backbone of Mazars’ talent and leadership development strategy. Our clients await educated answers to complex questions, our people expect to augment their employability along with a strong sense of belonging. This is why we created Mazars University back in 2008, with one simple question in mind: why stop learning once you graduate? In a talent-intensive industry, we very much rely on the quality of our people. Education at all stages of the professional journey is what increasingly makes the difference.
