  • Is it necessary for me to be a law student, or is there a specific qualification required to enroll in the diploma program?

    It's not a requirement, of course, especially since the arbitration diploma is an alternative to the judiciary. In this program, all types of contracts in various fields are studied.

  • How did you ensure that I benefited from the lectures and how do you write down the certificates without making sure that I watched the lectures completely?

    Our role as an institution is to provide you with every means to ensure your benefit, whether through advanced academic content and recorded lectures that you can watch at any time, or through the scientific office to address any questions related to the academic material. The lecturer himself will respond to your questions throughout the day.

Firstly, it holds international accreditation and qualifies you directly for the job market with ease compared to academic diplomas. Additionally, you can benefit from the certificates in a shorter period than an academic diploma.
