Degree in Business Administration: College of Higher Education

Colleges of Higher Education (CHE) are part of the continuing education and training / tertiary level of higher vocational education and training and offer practical training courses that provide in-depth specialist knowledge in the respective field. CHE courses also promote participants' specialist and leadership skills and prepare them specifically for responsible tasks in everyday working life.

CHE courses, such as those leading to a degree in business administration, are aimed at people with an upper-secondary level qualification and relevant professional experience in the respective field. The duration of a course is usually between two and four years, either part-time or full-time.

All courses at Colleges of Higher Education are recognized by the federal government and lead to a protected diploma that also allows access to Universities of Applied Sciences. The Confederation currently regulates eight CHE areas:

• Economy
• Technology
• Hospitality, tourism, housekeeping
• Agriculture and forestry
• Social affairs / adult education
• Health
• Traffic / Transportation
• Arts, creation and design

Colleges of Higher Education thus offer a practical, state-recognized further training opportunity to prepare students professionally and personally for taking on demanding tasks. This also applies to the business administration diploma course.
