Recognition for a degree

Further education tailored to your needs

Take advantage of academically recognised learning opportunities designed to help you develop your expertise in specific areas and earn ECTS credit points towards a future degree. Invest in your future and secure your own personal competitive advantage.

Please see below in "Completing your course" for more details.

Our certificate programmes are designed for working professionals, career changers and anyone who wants to develop their skills and knowledge.
No matter which subject area you choose to study, your course will include the following elements:

Guided self-study with up-to-date study materials and innovative e-learning units via our E-campus, the University's dedicated online learning platform.
Direct contact with your professors for any questions you may have.

You can start at any time at the beginning of a month. This means that the certificate programme can be flexibly adapted to your individual life situation and your schedule.

To qualify for our university certificates, you should be open-minded and curious, interested in innovation and keen to embrace change. No prior academic knowledge is required, although relevant qualifications or experience from your day-to-day work may be an advantage.

You alone decide on the intensity and duration of your certificate studies.

With our university certificates, you can achieve your goal quickly and within a foreseeable time frame. Often, it takes only a few months to significantly expand your skills.

For each university certificate, we recommend a study duration that you can flexibly vary. After this recommended study period, we will provide you with free support for a further six months.

You can conveniently pay in monthly instalments as standard. Depending on the duration and scope, university certificates cost from €840. You can be sure that there will be no additional fees – even if you take longer than the recommended study duration.**

What's more, the costs of your part-time further education are usually tax deductible in Germany.

All of the course content is available to you in digital form on our E-campus. You will learn using multimedia with didactically prepared study materials, interactive podcasts and explanatory videos. The content is specially designed for efficient self-study alongside your career.

In addition to imparting knowledge, the E-campus also serves as a means of communication. It provides all students with a permanent link to the entire university team. You can research in the online libraries, exchange ideas with your fellow students and form study groups. In addition, the entire organisation of your certificate studies is handled via the E-campus. This includes, for example, registering for exams, submitting assignments, presentations and tasks, and viewing grades.

To successfully complete your university certificate, we offer you two options:

1. You can complete your university certificate with an exam. Depending on the certificate, this may consist of assignments to be submitted, online tests or case studies. Once you have passed your exams, you will receive a certificate with your grade, ECTS certificate and a degree designation. You can use this certificate towards recognition for a future degree.

2. If you do not wish to take any exams, we will, of course, issue you with a certificate of attendance from the SRH Fernhochschule.
