Editor's Notes
- Ladies and Gentlemen! My name is Victor Mihalic. I´m the chairman of EBC*L International. I´m dealing with e-learning since 1996. Therefore I can say that I have gathered some experience in this field. Especially in the 90ies I had to see how many mistakes have been done in trying to implement e-learning; and really many e-learning projects failed and many e-learning-companies went bankrupty. Therefore I´m really happy to have survived the e-learning hype as well as the e-learning-crisis and that Ißm able to present a successstory in e-learning, or better say blended learning. In the next few minutes I would like to talk about the topic written on the starting slide: How to become competent in Business Management with E-Learning and Blended Learning

- There is nothing comparable on the market, it is a unique certification product. As Europe is growing together step by step, the mobility within Europe is increasing steadily. The European Commission initiated a lot of activities, to make vocational education comparable in the different European countries (European Qualification Frame, European Credit Transfer System). The EBC*L is a perfect example for a realised system on commercial basis. Comparable qualification/ increasing mobility. A success story and example for a similar certification system is the ECDL, which is very successful in the countries. At the moment the EBC*L is established in 26 Countries worldwide.
- To reach this vision, two measurement have been chosen: Setting an international standard in business management knowledge and enabling an easy access to business management learning. Soon it was clear that e-learning has to play an important role in reaching the ambitious goal
- When I do not have much time to explain the idea behin EBC*L, I´m taking ECDL/ICDL as referring example. What ECDL is doing for computer skills, EBC*L is doing for business management skills: Setting an international standard with a Standardized syllabus, a standardized exam and strict quality assurace systems. This standard guarentees that an owner of an EBC*L certificate has a well defined knowledge of business management, regardless if he has done the education in Germany, Russia, China or Egypt.
- The EBC*L is a consistent system. It is a system that accompanies an employee thru his professional career. Level A contains core business knowledge which is absolutely necessary to understand the economical objectives and general conditions of a company. This knowledge is relevant for everybody in his daily life, to read a newspaper, to understand the most important business expression : cash flow, depreciation, sales profitability, return on investment. It is necessary to have a common language within a company between Business Managers and Non Business Managers without a business education. It is a licence to participate in daily life and the business environment. BASED ON A: Level B focuses – based upon Level A – on knowledge for an active involvement into decision processes. Target group of Level B are Project Managers and employees with planning and budgeting competence. This Level contains all the knowledge and competences to plan a project, financial calculate it, sell the products and check the efficiency of a project. It is a licence to design your own projects. BASED ON A & B: Level C will be available in 2010. Target group is first of all Department Managers, owners or CEO of companies, start ups. It is knowledge to lead and control your department/ company. It is a licence to conduct.
