The FIBAA Accreditation and Certification Commission has awarded sixteen courses by Gisma University of Applied Sciences with the FIBAA Quality Seal for certified continuing education courses.
The courses “AI for Business: Driving Innovation”; “Conversational AI and Chatbot Systems”; “The Metaverse Revolution”; “Data Analytics”; “Python Programming and Practice”; “Blockchain and Cryptocurrency”; “IoT for Business Management Business Plan formulation and Implementation”; “Financial and Business Modelling”; “Digital Marketing ProSuite: Five Essentials”; “Digital Marketing Strategy”; “Logistics and Supply Chain Management Character Development”; “Corporate Sustainability and Leadership”; “Ethics, Compliance and Code of Conduct”; and “Project Management” represent the university's first step into the field of continuing education in technology and business management.
The FIBAA Quality Seal for certified continuing education courses is a certification for learning opportunities that do not conclude with an academic degree. FIBAA has developed this quality seal in analogy to the internationally recognized FIBAA accreditation of academic study programmes. Like FIBAA accreditation, the certification is based on the quality requirements of the European Study Guidelines (ESG). Within this framework, FIBAA examines the principles of student-centred learning and teaching, transparent regulations for admissions, course participation and examinations, the qualifications of the teaching staff, the organizational and technical infrastructure including documentation and information about the courses offered, as well as quality management for the continuous further development of the courses offered. In addition, there is the examination of the teaching and learning content and examination procedures with regard to the qualification objectives and the didactic methods used. Finally, FIBAA's assessment also includes compliance with the provisions of the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) in order to facilitate the recognition of courses within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) with a total of 49 countries. FIBAA thus creates transparency with regard to the level of quality and supports the global trend towards lifelong learning.
The target group for these courses are working professionals seeking flexible, career-relevant training that can be balanced with job commitments. The courses are called “professional certificates”, designed for four-weeks and are assigned 2.5 ECTS credits. They are delivered asynchronously online with eight hours of synchronous teaching, optionally in classroom or online.
FIBAA (Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation) is a European quality assurance agency for higher education and continuing education programmes. Founded in 1994, FIBAA is registered as an accreditation agency in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Vietnam and Ukraine. FIBAA is also a member of the European quality network ENQA (European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education) and registered with EQAR (European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education). Further memberships with CEENQA (Central and Eastern European Network of Quality Assurance), INQAAHE (International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education) and AQAN (ASEAN Quality Assurance Network) round off the international profile. With the FIBAA Quality Seal for certified continuing education courses, FIBAA has created a nationally and internationally applicable instrument for quality assurance in education and continuing education. It thus defines quality standards for courses without an academic degree, makes them comparable nationally and internationally and contributes to the permeability of educational biographies by also checking the requirements for an ECTS accreditation recommendation.
