CBA
CBA (Certificate in Business Administration)
The AVT CBA program gives you a tour de force of the MBA disciplines in just 6 months.
The CBA program starts twice a year: August and December.
Read more about the CBA concept and teaching strategies and methods here.
The CBA classes have a maximum of 45 participants and the modules are taught at the exclusive AVT Business School at Sankt Annae Plads in Copenhagen.

Interactive Classes - Improved Learning.
The CBA will be taught in classes of maximum 45 participants. This means that larger classes will be split in two teams (called the Red Team and the Blue Team), and the class calendars will therefore vary depending on which team you are on. Both teams will go on the study tour and graduate together (same dates).
Before you start on the program, you prepare yourself to study on the Preparatory Courses.
CBA participants often finance part of the CBA study over their gross salary, splitting the cost with the sponsoring company. Read more about this option here.
You can read the 8-page brochure in the online reader below, or download the pdf-file for saving and printing here.
Duration 6 months (part time)
The CBA program comprise 20 ETCS credits (610 hours). 160 hours are contact-hours (class room hours), 300 hours are project hours and 150 hours are preparation time.
