A word from the Managing Director
Read the full letterSUP'MANAGEMENT INTELLIGENTSIA was born in 2021 from a conviction held by two chartered accountants: high-level vocational training must be available beyond Dakar. That conviction still underpins everything we do.
We train in accounting, management and IT with one objective: skills that work on the job market from day one, beyond the certificate itself.
We carry that ambition with the same rigour and the same sincerity as on the first day.
Programmes
Four disciplines, one standard.
Programmes are rebuilt around competency blocks. Each discipline leads to an identified occupation, with work placements as its backbone.
SMI 2030
