CASK

CASK, the association that federates all the associations of SKEMA Business School.

CASK (Confédération des Associations de SKEMA) was born from the merger in 2016 of FASK (in Lille) and CARA (in Sophia Antipolis). It is therefore a national association whose objective is to develop and support SKEMA's associative fabric. This desire is based on 3 pillars: Training / Advice / Audits that we are keen to develop throughout the year in order to benefit all associations. We provide associations with a range of training courses on the key points of association life (treasury, secretariat, communication, canvassing). In addition, each member of the CASK monitors one or two associations on a daily basis through audits, with the aim of providing appropriate and personalised advice.

Dain events The MAC (My Associative Concept) is the flagship event of the CASK in Lille. In partnership with SKEMA Conseil, it is a call for student event projects. The aim is to subsidise the innovative and ambitious project of an association, thanks to our partners.

The recruitment process consists of 3 phases:

- A 15min interview with members of the association to assess the candidate's motivation

- A 30min practical case, in a group, to assess the ability to work in a group

- An aperitif/evening between all the members of the association and the candidates to get to know each other. These phases are very important because they allow us to make the right choice. The most important assets at CASK are motivation, professionalism and cohesion between all members.
