European Business Baccalaureate Diploma (EBBD)
Europe; Economy – Mobility
Every year Europe grows closer together; in political, social and most importantly in economic aspects. As a result of this development, there are challenges which require a particular understanding of economic relationships in a unified Europe. These challenges require a readiness for mobility, extensive soft skills and business competence in order to be able to comfortably deal with international business questions.
The European Business Baccalaureate Diploma (EBBD) equips students with the necessary competence to master these challenges.
With the EBBD, young students will receive a harmonized and accredited European qualification going beyond the national framework for professions in the field of business administration. Thus the graduates of the EBBD programme increase their opportunities in the job market.
Business Competence ‘European Style’
In the future, the European Economic Area will require even broader and more particular competencies. The EBBD portfolio has been specifically designed with these competencies in mind; the EBBD supports the European economy by educating a top qualified workforce.
Graduates receive an additional, internationally renowned certificate, which also serves as preparation for academic studies with a European focus.
