Within the Executive Academy, the Faculty of International Relations offers courses that respond to the current needs of the public and private sectors in various economic areas.
All of these courses, when successfully completed, result in an EU-wide microcertificate. A microcertificate (also microcredential) is an officially recognised document of completion of a specific course, which confirms that the holder has acquired specific knowledge and skills in a given field. The microcertificates issued by the VŠE are entered in the official national register and comply with the European quality framework. They can be used as
-> additional qualifications for professional development or career progression,
-> when demonstrating expertise to employers, clients or institutions,
-> as a modular building block for further study or lifelong learning.
The first run in the fall of 2025 is completely free of charge!
