Lillebaelt Academy of Professional Higher Education

One of my first actions upon starting with the International Business College Mitrovica was to finalise the selection of a partner institution which would validate our diplomas and degrees.  It was clear that this needed to be a European institution that had embraced the Bologna Accord which aims to harmonise 40 different European higher education systems within a framework of a consistent credit and grading system.

Following a tender process, and the review of applications from four European countries, we were able to settle on the Lillebaelt Academy of Professional Higher Education from Odense in Denmark.  The Academy is a relatively new construct that brings together three existing institutions that are located around the Lillebaelt sound.  Their striking logo represents the spectacular bridge that makes travelling from Odense to Copenhagen a lot easier than it was in the past!

You have to admit there is a resemblance!

An excellent working relationship is being established between our institutions and the International Business College Mitrovica is today able to offer Academy Professional diplomas that represent an achievement of 120 ECTS (or 4 semesters study) and Bachelor of Arts degrees with a value of 210 ECTS (or 7 semesters study).

It is important to stress that all our teaching in Mitrovica is in English and this requires a high level of preparation by prospective students of the International Business College Mitrovica.  Our programmes replicate exactly those taught in Denmark where the Lillebaelt Academy of Professional Higher Education has significant experience in delivering a wide range of business education in English to students from around the world.

Both AP and BA certifications are issued by Lillebaelt Academy of Professional Higher Education and provide our graduates with a unique chance to get a European education and degree without leaving their home region.
