The British European University wasn’t just formed but it has evolved through natural process as an organisation underpinning best of two distinct worlds; theoretical and practical. The days of the Lecture Theatres, Halls of Residence, Binge drinking through the nights and the rest of the goodies have been marked for extinction by our political philanthropists ever since education became a burden to the States. Education Ministers throughout the world have dabbled with various alternatives to replace the traditional methods but none have found a perfect solution. Japan and Germany have been advocating the integration of vocational concept into theoretical learning from the outset but the rest of the world have been extremely slow to adopt the model. Even before the expansion of the use of Computers began to grow exponentially, vocational qualifications were recognised and actively encouraged by the States. Minimum requirements of any decent jobs have changed progressively from G.C.E ‘O’ levels, G.C.S.E, G.C.E. ’A’ levels to at least Bachelor degrees. This has inevitably created a shortage of graduates to meet the market demand. Compounded with this problem was the fact that the newly graduated candidates lacked the necessary skills to meet the requirement of the work place. Skills gained through experience were observed as critically important to the employer than a degree gained at a university. Consequently, all Technical Colleges were encouraged to promote Vocational type of training and certification but the traditional universities and academics had attempted to undermine the change and frowned upon the qualifications such as National Diplomas and very slow to recognise such qualifications. Government intervention and concerted effort by trade organisations such as Confederation of British Industry (CBI) had succeeded in establishing a sound footing for the National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ). Nonetheless, the traditional universities have failed to make any significant change to the system. This is where the British European University is scoring points. The Vocational Skills Accreditation Faculty of the university (VSAF) is dedicated to evaluate, validate and certify the skills of candidates gained through work experience in any fields. The faculty is formed of several experts and captains of the industries and academics with extensive qualifications. The evaluation process entails several methods; viva voce, work demonstration, written submission, testimonies etc.. From the evaluation, the candidates may receive the certification or recommended to follow courses to fill the inadequate areas. The
qualified personnel from the university will satisfy both
theoretical and practical requirements of today’s and tomorrows
industries. Rationale for
