About Businet

Introducing Working Groups

Many activities of the organisation take place within the working groups of the network. These working groups are established by either curriculum area or by special interest. The HED prefix refers to one of the Qualifications validated by the Network - The Higher European Diploma (HED). Students studying in an approved programme who satisfy the assessment requirements of the specific certificate/diploma are award a Businet HEC/HED qualification.

The activities of these groups involve managing teacher and student exchanges, the conferment of Higher European Diplomas and Certificates, the organisation of intensive programmes bringing students from across Europe together, and the accessing of opportunities provided by European funding mechanisms.
