Great news! We are thrilled to announce that a large number of our EIT Food Education Programmes have earned the esteemed EIT Label!

Now, let's delve into what the EIT Label represents. 

The EIT Label serves as formal recognition of excellence for a course or programme , signifying that it meets the highest standards of quality in teaching, learning and the participant experience.

Introduced by the EIT, the certificate of quality that is awarded  exclusively to outstanding educational programmes. 

It aligns with the EIT's overarching learning outcomes, emphasizing knowledge triangle integration; innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E) education; highly integrated innovative ‘learning-by-doing’ curricula; international engagement and experience, inter-sectoral and inter-organisational collaboration, geographic inclusion, diversity, gender equality, ethics and digitalisation. 

So, why embark on the accreditation process?
