Frequently Asked Questions

An international certificate is a document issued by the university that proves your participation in a course abroad. This certificate is a valuable addition to your resume and can be recognized in your home country by universities or employers. Upon completing one of the thematic international courses offered by IBS Americas, you receive a Certificate of Executive Management issued by the university where the course was taken, validating your academic and international experience. 

In order to study with IBS Americas, it is necessary to have an intermediate to advanced level of English, so that you can interact effectively with colleagues and professors during the courses. The Business English course, however, requires only a basic level of English, making it ideal for those who want to improve their language skills before delving into more complex content. 

In the United States, IBS Americas offers in-person courses at several prestigious universities, such as: 

University of La Verne and California State University, Northridge (CSUN), California. 
State University of New York (SUNY), on the New Paltz and Albany campuses in New York. 
Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Florida.
