In the year 2001 and 2010, ICBS was subjected to assessment by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA), based in the UK, for its activities Greece. The object of the assessment was to assure the quality of the collaboration of ICBS with the University of UK. The assessment period was one year in duration and covered areas such as data and processes of the last five years. The result of the assessment was that this collaboration was splendid. ICBS Business College felt particularly gratified, as once again it had passed an inspection by an independent international body, with flying colours. This couldn’t have been achieved without the consistent application of quality assurance procedures for the provided educational services.

NARIC UK has the responsibility of recognising - or not - all degrees of people interested in working in the UK. These certificates testify that the degrees awarded to member College graduates are comparable to those of any UK University, both academically and professionally.Hence, this is a further certification awarded to College graduates, by what should be notes as the most active by far such organisation in Europe, putting its prestigious weight behind ICBS College degrees.
