Our Mission

Accreditation is one of the key terms in the process of creating a common European Higher Education Area in the future. FIBAA devotes its work and activities to this process, which has been initialised by the Bologna Conference and the follow up conferences of the respective national ministries in charge. FIBAA respects and takes into account the national guidelines of Germany – Austria – Switzerland. But also guidelines, which have been consolidated in the European framework, receive due consideration. Because of this, the co-operation in supranational institutions as well as the utilization of the benchmarks developed therein are at the heart of FIBAA’s innermost convictions and philosophy. The accreditation process is based on transparent quality criteria. They will have to reflect the current status quo of science and the requirements of the occupational area.
Therefore, it is indispensable that next to other relevant groups higher education and economy, scientists and company representatives collaborate in the boards of the FIBAA.
