WORKING LANGUAGE : English


Tuition fees

The tuition fee is 5 990 € (VAT excl. for companies, VAT included for individuals) and includes teaching materials, access to the UCL infrastructure, meals and coffee breaks.
A discount of 20% will be offered for a second (or more) participant from the same company.


Registration by module

The programme is build around 6 modules, during 18 months. As we received a lot of requests, we decided to allow following some modules individually (modules 1 to 4).
In order to get the university certificate (and the 20 ECTS credits), the participants have to follow the 6 modules and pass the evaluation. This can be spread on several cycles.
An attest will be distributed after each module.

Modules 5 and 6 will be only accessible for people who followed the four first modules.

The price per module is 1 250€ (VAT excl. for companies, VAT included for individuals).


Admission criteria

The participants will preferably hold a master in Economics, Management, Business engineering, Finance, Law, Civil engineer, among others. They will have a minimum of 3 years of working experience. Candidates who don't meet above admission criteria but are willing to be considered for the programme, can submit a file with their relevant work experience.

Acceptance into the programme is based on a selection interview and a review of the registration file by a commission composed of three teachers in the programme.


Enrolment procedure

The registration form is available online. The number of participants is limited to ensure the quality of the programme.
The organizers reserve the right to cancel or postpone the certificate, should the number of participants be insufficient.


University certificate

Participants who have actively taken part in the whole programme and passed the required evaluations will be issued a “University certificate in Business ethics and compliance management”, worth 20 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System). This certificate is in itself a valuable addition to the participant’s academic records.

Furthermore, the associated credits, if validated by the examination board of a subsequent academic programme elsewhere in Europe, can be applied in that programme. Participation in all sessions, without passing the evaluations, will result in the issuance of a certificate of attendance.
