On November 1, 2018, an international transversal department was created between the two schools of the CCI of Lyon Metropole: EKLYA and HYBRIA. The department is led by Martin Klotz, former international pedagogical coordinator and head of the ‘Centre d’étude de Langues’ (CEL) at the Lyon Chamber of Commerce and Industry.  It reports directly to Sébastien Arcos, director of EKLYA and HYBRIA. This affiliation to the management of both schools allows the international department to create a synergy between the partners and to generate an economy of scale.  The International Department team also includes Melisa Kebude and Melina MOUMENE, in charge of international development on a work-study contract.

A EKLYA international development committee validates the main development priorities.
