Global Accreditation& Recognition

Swiss Diploma is a member of Swiss Information and Management Institute (SIMI Swiss).

The Swiss Information and Management Institute (SIMI Swiss) is a globally recognized and acclaimed private higher education institution, holding independent and private international accreditation at the institutional, school, and program levels.

SIMI Swiss is licensed by the Zug Canton authority as a private institution. Being a private institution in Switzerland, SIMI Swiss issues private qualifications. Not being part of Switzerland’s federal and public higher education sector, it operates independently and is not regulated under the Federal Act of 30 September 2011 on the Funding and Coordination of the Higher Education Sector (HEdA), SR 414.11.

Our higher education programs differ from the Swiss National Curricula and programs leading to Swiss Government university qualifications and federally regulated qualifications in Switzerland.

SIMI Swiss is a private, globally accredited higher education institute in Switzerland and is not affiliated with the Swiss public education system or the Swiss government. The qualification issued by SIMI Swiss is a Private qualification, distinct from federal degrees or degrees awarded by public universities in Switzerland.

Accreditation serves as a rigorous quality assurance process, verifying that colleges, universities, and educational institutions, along with their programs, adhere to stringent and recognized service and operational standards. Acquiring an accredited degree is crucial for attaining the career success you rightfully deserve.

Through this process, external agencies assess a school’s programs, guaranteeing adherence to relevant academic standards. Lack of accreditation makes it difficult for employers to ascertain the legitimacy and reputation of your diploma or degree, emphasizing the importance of this recognition from reputable institutions.

Institutional accreditation essentially grants a license to operate, gauging compliance with predetermined standards like staff qualifications, research activities, student intake, and learning resources. It also considers the institution’s potential to produce graduates meeting academic and professional competence standards (source: “The Power of Accreditation: Views of Academics” by Professor Lee Harvey, Centre for Research and Evaluation, Sheffield Hallam University, ENQA Workshop Reports, 2004).

With official approval, students at the Swiss Information and Management Institute (SIMI Swiss) can trust the institution’s compliance with commercial quality and integrity standards. Licensed by the Zug Canton authority, SIMI Swiss is fully accredited by independent global accrediting bodies.

Program or programmatic accreditation, also referred to as specialized or professional accreditation, is tailored for specific departments, programs, schools, or colleges within an already accredited university or institute.

At SIMI Swiss, we excel in adhering to international higher education standards. As a reputable and globally acclaimed Private Institute of Higher Education, we have secured accreditation at the institutional, school, and program levels. All our academic programs align seamlessly with the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), ensuring that every SIMI Swiss program and qualification receives greater recognition in the labor market, guaranteeing our graduates open access to employment and lifelong learning.

SIMI Swiss engages in close collaboration with meticulously chosen partner universities globally. The aim is to accredit and mutually recognize degrees offered by these strategic partners. This collaboration proves advantageous for SIMI students, potentially enabling them to attain multiple academic credentials simultaneously.

Students will be recognized for their academic progress and awarded a degree from SIMI Swiss upon completing coursework and complying with our requirements and obligations, including academic discipline and integrity. In the case of students who pursue dual degrees or programs with our partners, they may also receive additional diplomas or certifications from these institutions.

   It’s important to note that every country, institution, and region has specific rules and criteria for recognizing academic progress and qualifications. The recognition and acceptance of degrees are subjective decisions made by the relevant agencies, government authorities, or in accordance with regional policies, as per international norms. While SIMI Swiss’s degrees are accredited by an independent accreditor, align with competency frameworks, and are subject to internal and external assessments, this does not automatically guarantee recognition or acceptance. SIMI Swiss and its partners do not provide a guarantee of recognition in any country for any purpose, including employment, teaching, research supervision, and any other purposes.

   Built on these principles, SIMI Swiss, university partners, and local partners necessitate that learners clarify their status before enrollment. Furthermore, SIMI Swiss, university partners, and local partners do not endorse or support any processes related to recognition in any country or location.
