Accreditation:

• Recognised by the business community and by all the leading concerns and trade associations, in Italy IED initiated in 2007 the process to obtain due authorisation from the Ministry of Education, University and Research.

• To help this process IED is working to adjust all its educational offer according to the European standards, set by the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System).

• IED is itself a member of other international academic institutions, authorities and associations: a network of important partners with which it participates actively in cultural and didactic exchange programmes.

• In this way, the best students have the opportunity to be chosen to attend a school in another country for a semester, where they can develop a project to be presented and discussed when they return to Italy.
