In Switzerland, the Swiss educational system is composed of Public and Private Institutions. It is important to highlight that normally, only Swiss public universities are recognized by the state.
Academic recognition is the recognition of a foreign qualification for the purpose of further studies. The need for academic recognition may arise when a person having a qualification from their home country seeks admission to a further stage of studies in a foreign country or seeks admission to further studies in the home country after completion of the previous stage or a period of study abroad. In principle, academic recognition is sought only for admission to further studies and in the majority of national systems is directly made by higher education institutions. Those institutions can define their own admission requirements according to the National Higher Education system established in their home country.
Private business schools, on the other hand, offer small classes and are not government-subsidized. They can show evidence of their quality assurance in education by gaining certification from such bodies as ASIC, QAHE, IACBE or other international accreditation agencies.
Faculty at private business schools usually work on a part-time basis, combining teaching with industry work. They are fully aware of the latest trends in their sector and teach it both in theory and in practice.
The teaching methodology is much more hands-on, interactive, and practical. This category of professors ultimately train students to be better prepared and offer insight into real-world markets. As a result, credible private schools venture overseas to gain programmatic accreditation and look for external supervision and global benchmarking.
SSBR is a private education provider based in Switzerland.
SSBR is a private business school and operates outside the Swiss federal accreditation framework for higher education institutions. It is not listed among institutions recognised under the Swiss Higher Education Act (HEdA).
Within this context, SSBR provides higher education programmes and issues private qualifications at Bachelor, Master and Doctorate levels. These qualifications are private and are not state-recognised Swiss degrees.
The recognition of these qualifications for employment or further study is determined by employers, institutions, or competent authorities on a case-by-case basis.
SSBR operates within the framework applicable to private education providers in Switzerland and is committed to ensuring that all information regarding its programmes and qualifications is communicated transparently and accurately.
General information on private education providers in Switzerland, including the principle of economic freedom, is available from the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI):
