Program Manager AssistantExamination Board
The Examination Board at EA is the body that objectively and expertly determines whether a student meets the conditions set by the education and examination regulations regarding the knowledge and skills required to obtain a diploma.
It plays a fundamental role in monitoring the quality of exams, as it objectively and expertly assesses whether a student meets the final achievement level of the bachelor’s program. For this, their independence is essential, and our Examination Committee operates independently from the management team.
All members have a high level of expertise regarding the content of our bachelor’s program (understanding the subject of the educational program), assessment expertise (how quality assurance is ensured), and the legal and procedural aspects of the evaluation process.
Dr. Alex Pǎuceanu
Chair of the Examinations BoardI have spent three years teaching and providing business consultancy in Oman, followed by four years in the UAE as a professor and academic program chair for innovation and entrepreneurship. Additionally, I have three years of experience in supervision, administration, and tutoring at Geneva Business School. My research and doctoral supervision work focuses on business management, entrepreneurship, innovation, and startups, with an emphasis on understanding the business context and challenges in the fields of innovation and entrepreneurship.
Currently, I run my own business consultancy practice and serve as a professor with the Open Institute of Technology in Malta. Beyond my academic work, I am frequently invited to speak at the United Nations on topics related to business innovation, digital innovation, entrepreneurship, sustainable development, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

MemberMy name is Leonoor Slot, I live in the Netherlands, in Den Helder, which is a city about one hour north of Amsterdam. For several years I have worked as legal secretary for both the Examinations Board of Entrepreneurship Academy as for Team Academy in Amsterdam. Since this study year I’m appointed as member. I am very happy to become a member of the Examinations Board.
Next to this I have worked as Legal Secretary at some other educational institutions such as Meerwerf Scholen in Den Helder (primary education) and Don Bosco College in Vollendam (secondary education).
In my opinion both Team Academy as the Entrepreneurship Academy are very inspiring and positive Universities to work for. I enjoy the contact with the student and the management of the program. Together with my colleagues of the Board we strive to increase the quality of the education and to delivery good and fast service to our students.
