Accreditation
It has become evident, nowadays, that higher education institutions have become subject to the competition and the transparency of academic achievement compelling them to take the academic reform into their own hands by attaining accreditation for their institutions.
The Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA), a Swiss non-profit agency for quality assurance with operative branches in Bonn (Germany) and Zurich (Switzerland), is an international accreditation agency mainly active in Europe that assists higher education institutions in further developing their Bachelor, Master, and Ph.D. programs, through an intensive accreditation process. This process aims at quality improvement and the accreditation of the program. It comprises the consultation to quality management, the appraisal of the program concerning its structure and contents and the fulfillment of the requirements which are needed to bestow the FIBAA-quality seal. FIBAA has been an active member in the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA) since 2002 and in the European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR).
On the 17th of November, 2009, FIBAA granted the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh College of Business (TAG-College)/German-Jordanian University (GJU) a five years accreditation to its MBA program with concentrations in:
- Marketing
- Accounting
- Management
- Banking and Finance
- Quality Management
- Human Resources Management
TAG-College is the first higher education institution in the Middle East that gets accredited from FIBAA. This accreditation bestows the College with FIBAA’s quality seal impelling it to earn more attention internationally, and thus, reinforcing the College’s vision and mission in providing the Arab and Global markets with qualified business leaders through delivering sound academic and professional programs in accordance with European Standards.
