BALFIN Group is the majority shareholder of Tirana Business University College (TBU), increasing its share quota to 60%. Thus, BALFIN leads the way for TBU towards a new chapter of development, both in terms of technical and financial perspectives.
The increasing share participation of BALFIN Group represents new opportunities for students who have completed their high school studies and plan to initiate university studies, and for students who are in pursuit of a profession, career development, or a new career. New programs will be introduced before long which shall be developed based on the real labor market demands in the private sector. The new study programs shall be a meeting point for young people and businesses’ needs for young experts.
Considering that BALFIN Group operates in 10 different countries, TBU will introduce its new study programs in cooperation with other international universities and the main companies that will enable students to outshine in the ever-evolving education, business, and entrepreneurship sphere and beyond.
A propitious indication from TBU’s latest data reveals that 86.5% of its students are already employed before completing their studies. From 2023 onwards, it is expected that this figure shall further increase, with the support of BALFIN as the majority shareholder. In addition entrepreneurship and financial support opportunities for top-scoring and financially aided students shall develop.
