The University of Sussex Business School is pleased to announce a new partnership with Accredible to issue online certificates and LinkedIn badges to our students who complete international study opportunities. This includes studying abroad, participating in study trips, attending summer schools, or engaging in Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) projects.
COIL is an innovative educational approach that connects students and instructors from different countries to collaborate on shared projects and learning activities. The School is an enthusiastic early adopter of COIL, and has recently completed COIL projects with Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, University of Warsaw, and University of Florence.
There are several benefits of Accredible certification for students. They receive digital certificates and LinkedIn badges, which showcase their achievements to potential employers and academic institutions. These credentials can be easily shared on LinkedIn, helping students build their professional network and enhance their online presence. Accredible ensures that all certificates are secure and verifiable, adding credibility to students’ accomplishments. This initiative underscores the University of Sussex Business School’s commitment to providing valuable and globally recognised experiences for our students.
