The network
As an education provider, EFL has a unique platform based on its collaboration with 80 member organizations, which provide input and dialogue on strategic needs and challenges. With this data, we can help you meet and connect with companies that have similar challenges and would benefit from knowledge sharing and collaboration.

Digital platform
Members gain access to the EFL Learning Lounge. You will receive your own login credentials giving you access to presentations, videos, further reading tips, articles and cases. These tools will help you successfully grow your business. If you participate in any of our programs, everything involving the program will be available on the platform and in an app on your phone, making it easy, fast and convenient.

Teaser seminars and topical roundtables
We regularly organize well-attended teaser seminars and topical roundtables. Selection of previous topics: Marketing for increased sales, Management using key performance indicators, Getting customers to choose your company, The challenges of digitalization, and Leadership in organizations.

Spotlight on Digitalization/HR/Finance
Member companies may send up to two participants to one of our three focus groups: Digitalization, HR or Finance. Each group meets 4–6 times a year. You’ll get to share experiences with others from our region and work on your challenges with leading experts. Your company is also given the opportunity to host a meeting and select a hot topic from your business. One of EFL’s expert faculty will be sent to facilitate the meeting.
Our 2016 topics included the following: Brexit – what are its implications?, Sustainability in practice, New regulations from the Swedish Work Environment Authority, and Motivation and work satisfaction.
Discounts on programs
Member companies enjoy discounted prices on our open programs.

Guest lecturers
Would you like to be a guest lecturer or present a case at one of our programs? This is popular and an excellent way to exemplify our role as the academy in the center of the business world. For example, challenge the skilled and talented participants of our Marketing Management, Management Control or Executive MBA programs to address one of your strategic issues.

Utvecklingsgrytan
Utvecklingsgrytan is a creative discussion forum held in the late fall. The forum brings together the contact persons of our member companies, past participants of our Executive MBA program and subject matter experts from the EFL faculty in one action-packed afternoon. Don’t miss this opportunity to discuss your strategic challenges with experts in fields such as finance, leadership, international relations, marketing and strategy.

Lunch and learn
Once a year you will receive the exclusive opportunity to meet one of our expert faculty at a lunch and learn for the purpose of brainstorming and getting input on your strategic challenges. You pick the subject, we provide the expert!

Members Day
In the spring, you’ll be invited to an inspiring Members Day event centered on a hot topic moderated by one of our expert faculty. Members Day aims to give you input on a specific topic and send you home with tools you can start using immediately.

Personal EFL advisor
You will be assigned an EFL advisor with whom you can maintain ongoing contact and to whom you can always turn if you have questions. We can assist in identifying experts in a given field, relevant reading material, interesting programs, and other member companies dealing with similar business challenges. We are also happy to share our experience to help you achieve maximum impact by tailoring your educational experience to your company’s specific needs.
