Information about recognition of Business English
The Examinations Office recognises achievements made in Business English at a vocational school for business and administration as academic achievements if the following conditions are proven by a certificate or a certificate from the vocational school:
- It must be clearly recognisable that the achievement is in Business English.
- The level of competence achieved according to the European Competence Framework for Languages must be shown and must be at least at level B1 and/or B2 and/or C1 (for the degree programme in Business Administration/Business Studies) or at level C1 (for the degree programme in International Business Studies) or at level B2 (for the degree programme in Business Law) or at level C1 (for the degree programme Global Business and Economics).
3. A grade must have been awarded.
4. The certificate must not be older than two years at the time of recognition.
Further achievements from vocational training are not credited towards academic achievements.
