Mission & Vision

Connecting students with professional education designed for labour market success.

Our core mission

Professional education routes designed for labour market success

Connecting talent and opportunity across Belgium and Europe.

Brussels College's primary mission is to connect students with high-quality, professional education designed to support labour market integration, delivered by the institutions we founded and our partners. We support every student in gaining the practical competencies, sector-relevant knowledge and professional maturity needed to secure meaningful employment, in Belgium and across the wider European Union.

We believe that access to an internationally recognized qualification, delivered in the heart of Europe, should be the gateway to a fulfilling career, not a privilege reserved for a few. Every route we work with is designed around employer expectations, the applicable regulatory frameworks and the evolving demands of the Belgian and EU labour market.

Brussels College — the founding institutionBrussels College initiated Northwood University - Brussels and BCBT - Brussels College of Business and Technology, which now run as standalone institutions with their own programmes, admissions and accreditation. Brussels College carries the mission forward through these institutions, its centre approvals and partnerships, and its quality registrations; it does not offer programmes itself. Meet our institutions.
