Our Fachoberschule: Just two years for the Fachabitur (Advanced Vocational Certificate of Education)!

Our Fachoberschule (technical secondary school) is a two-year training course that is concluded with the Allgemeine Fachhochschulreife (General Technical University Entrance Qualification). A prerequisite for admission is the middle-school leaving certificate or transfer to class 11 of the Gymnasium (secondary school).

Our Fachoberschule for Business and Administration prepares you for business and administrative responsibilities.

Passed the final exam, and then?

The Fachhochschulreife (General Technical University Entrance Qualification) enables you to pursue any course of study at German Universities of Applied Sciences. In addition, our graduates are free to pursue numerous study programs with a Bachelor-Master’s structure both at home and abroad.  

Customized solutions

Class sizes with about ten students are a good prerequisite for individualized and intensive learning. We are always happy to integrate students from other educational systems and countries and help find accommodation for students from outside Brussels.

We prepare interested students for foreign language tests (e.g., TOEFL, TOEIC) and also lessons in Dutch and French for those interested. Students in these classes are also assisted in their search for suitable internships in the area around Brussels. 

Our welcome culture includes…

• try-out days before a possible registration
• companionship by a godchild who helps your child during the initial phase
• many opportunities to make friends with schoolmates quickly in our school programs
• a school community that offers you excellent tips and a network to help you quickly and easily find your way in Belgium
