valid until 2021.

An agreement on the lease of premises has been signed with SIA Namatēvs regarding the

lease of a five-storey building at Ģertrūdes street 32, lit. 3, Riga, with a total area of 1,900.84

sq.m, where the redesigning work has started. The initial investment in repairs is 150,000 lats,

2.3. PROSPECTS FOR GRADUATES OF THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE ON THE LABOUR MARKET OVER THE NEXT SIX

YEARSThe prospective graduates of the University College help develop the relationship

between EIHSEBA and employers. The University College will continue to develop forms of

cooperation with social partners and employers in the future as well.

The social partners and employers are involved in the events organized by EIHSEBA

University College, such as scientific research conferences, assessment of study programmes,

joint seminars and other activities, thus providing their feedback.

On 10 November 2011, EIHSEBA University College together with ABC Coaching and

Counselling Centre, Cormack Consultancy Baltic (the UK) and 999 Design Group office

for the Baltic States held a training seminar on the start of exports and their benefits. The

seminar involved a discussion on the key aspects to be considered in order to prepare for exports,

as well as on various market structures and characteristics, consumer behaviour and retail

organization. The seminar was attended by 38 business executives.

On 28 April 2012, EIHSEBA University College and the Business College of Latvia will

hold a joint Scientific Conference on Economic, Legal and Technological Aspects of

Entrepreneurship, for which a number of business executives have sent in their abstracts.

In 2011-2012, a survey financed by the EU on the Development of a Sectoral

Qualifications System and Improvement of the Efficiency and Quality of Vocational Education

13

and Training was conducted in Latvia, which involved 1999 CEOs of companies operating in a

variety of sectors who answered the questions about the current number of employees, their

salaries, as well as the planned number of employees in the future. Based on the results, it can be

concluded that:

- the need to employ lawyers for businesses will grow, and their number will increase by

an average of 21.62% within the next three years;

- the development of the tourism industry will require an average of 11.4% more tourism-

related companies than there are today;

- the fastest growth is projected in the information and communication technology sector:

the number of companies operating in the sector is expected to increase by 42.17%, while

the number of employees will grow by 56.84%;

- the general increase in the number of executive officers is expected in the range of 10-

15% (depending on the sector).

The survey of the employers of the prospective graduates enrolled in the professional

master’s study programmes Management of Large and Medium-Sized Companies and Law

Science was conducted after the completion of the theoretical course in January of the academic

year 2011/2012.

The survey questionnaire is enclosed in Annex 9.

Four students started the study programme Management of Large and Medium-Sized

Companies offered by EIHSEBA in the academic year 2011/2012. Questionnaires completed by

employers have been received from four Term 1 students pursuing the Master’s programme

Management of Large and Medium-Sized Companies within the survey of the employers’

opinion.

The represented employers are SIA Interinfo Latvijā – an inquiry market company

operating across Latvia, AS Hella Information – a service company and SIA RAKUS (Riga

Eastern Clinical University Hospital) Pathology Centre (2 students) – a health care company

operating in Riga.

75% of employers believe that, in their view, part-time off-site education provides the

best learning outcomes in terms of knowledge, skills and competence, as this mode of work and

studies enables working students to combine education with work. 25% of employers consider

full-time on-site studies to be the best form of education.

100% of employers support the studies of their employees, showing interest in the results

of education, while 25% of them support flexible work schedules.

14

The surveyed employers believe that the additional knowledge and additional skills their

employees should obtain are information technology literacy and foreign languages. One of the

personality traits named by the employers is accuracy.

One of the suggestions for improving the study programme is to set up a course on

Global Financial Instruments and Their Management.

Within the next 6 months, the companies represented by the employers will require direct

marketing specialists, IT specialists, project managers, laboratory assistants and archivists.

75% of the surveyed employers are not ready to offer practical training to other students

of EIHSEBA, while 25% are willing to provide practical training to other students.

When completing the questionnaire, the employers were asked to evaluate the

competence of their employee – a student of EIHSEBA – on 14 criteria.

The evaluation has been done on a four-point scale basis, where 5 is excellent, 4 is good,

3 is average and 2 is poor, thus allowing to calculate the arithmetic mean of each student’s

competence from the employer’s point of view.

The arithmetic mean for all competences is more than 4, i.e. above the rating good.

Particular attention should be drawn to the unanimous rating of excellent in two

competences: the ability to work independently and in a team, using one’s knowledge and

leadership skills, ability to take responsibility for one’s performance, as well as the ability to plan

and forecast the efficient operations of the company in accordance with the stated objectives,

economic environment and labour market situation.

The lowest mean score of 4.25 is for the competence regarding the Ability to Represent

the Company in Dealings With Other Companies, Organizations and Authorities, Including

Municipalities and State Institutions.

The summary of evaluation of the students’ competences shows that overall there is no

rating of average or poor. The employers have assessed the competences of their employees only

as excellent and good.

The University College has developed employers’ questionnaires to assess the level of

students’ achievements. In 2011 two students started their studies for the professional master’s

study programme “Law” at EIHSEBA. During the employers’ survey the two completed

employers’ questionnaires from the first term students were received, both employers represent

educational branch. Both mentioned institutions operate in the city of Riga.

In one employer’s opinion the full-time or day studies ensures the best study results in

terms of knowledge, skills and competence, on the contrary, the other employer thinks that the

best form of studies is the part-time studies in the evening department.

15

One employer supports the studies of his employee, participating in studies financing, but

the other one is interested in the results of the studies.

The questioned employers think that their employees need deeper knowledge of the EU

Law, but as additional skills they mentioned the ability to adapt oneself to circumstances.

Moreover, they mentioned strengthening of work discipline and preparation of the

students for enterprise agreement conclusion as their proposals for study programme

improvement.

One company of the questioned employers will need the representatives of manager

profession within nearest 6 months. The other employer reserved his opinion concerning the

question about the necessity of any profession representatives.

Completing the questionnaire, the employers evaluated their employee – EIHSEBA’s

student – competence according to nine criteria.

Summarizing the results, the following assessment system was used, in which 5

corresponds to assessment - distinguished, 4 – good, 3 – satisfactory, 2 – unsatisfactory, in that

way it gives an opportunity to calculate the arithmetic mean value of each student competence

from the employer’s point of view.

All the competences obtained the arithmetic mean value – 4.5, except for the competence

– “ability to understand, analyze and apply legal norms correctly from a methodological point of

view”, which both employers evaluated as “good”. One can draw a conclusion that, by

developing the master degree’s study programme “Law”, it is especially necessary to promote

the students competence development in finding, analyzing and application of legal norms, that

is correct from a methodological point of view.

Summarizing the students’ competences assessment results, it was found out that in total

there was no assessment “satisfactory” or “satisfactory”. The students’ competences were

evaluated only as “distinguished” or “good”.

increase according to the number of prospective students who show a high level of knowledge in

22

http://lv.eihseba.com/



the test. The number of such places is calculated using a special formula with the key indexes A,

B and C, where:

A is the number of students enrolled last semester,

B is the previous year’s financial results of EIHSEBA University College,

C is the number of students who have shown a high level of knowledge in the test.

The contest for budget-funded places is held by assessing the results of the test. The

correct answers should account for at least 70%.

The winners of the contest are determined by the Contest Committee of EIHSEBA

University College presided by the chairperson of the Admissions Committee.

The right to study on a budget-funded basis enters into force after the contract and the

annex thereto have been signed.

If the student receives at least one grade lower than 8 at the examinations of the first

semester, he/she loses the right to study on a budget-funded basis during the next semester. If the

all the grades received by the student at the examinations of the first semester are not lower than

8 (very good), the student keeps the right to study on a budget-funded basis during the next

semester, based on the Rector’s administrative order. If the student receives at least one grade

lower than 8 at the examinations of the next semester, he/she loses the right to study on a budget-

funded basis during the subsequent semester.

4. QUANTITATIVE INDICATORS OF THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE

4.1. STUDY PROGRAMMES AND NUMBER OF STUDENTS

On 13 July 2011, EIHSEBA University College obtained the licence from the Ministry of

Education and Science of the Republic of Latvia for implementation of the following study

programmes:

- the professional higher education bachelor’s programme “Jurisprudence” (No.

04065-1) for obtaining the professional bachelor’s degree in Law Science and the

qualification of a legal adviser;

04065-2) for obtaining the professional master’s degree in Law Science and the

qualification of a lawyer;

- the professional higher education master’s programme “Management of Large

and Medium-Sized Companies” (No. 04065-3) for obtaining the professional

master’s degree in Business Management.

Admissions to the three above study programmes were announced and the following

numbers of students were enrolled in the first semester of the academic year 2011/2012:

- 28 students in the study programme Jurisprudence;

- 2 students in the study programme Law Science;

- 4 students in the study programme Management of Large and Medium-Sized

Companies.

On 20 October 2011, EIHSEBA University College obtained the licence from the

Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Latvia for implementation of the

professional higher education bachelor’s programme “Business Administration” (No. 04065-4)

for obtaining the professional bachelor’s degree in Management Science and the qualification of

a company manager.

of the academic year 2012:

- 87 students in the study programme Jurisprudence;

obtaining the licence, most secondary school graduates had already made their choice by then;

2) potential students do not trust the little-known institution of higher education;

3) potential students are aware of the options offered by educational establishments and

mostly trust the accredited study programmes implemented by accredited institutions of higher

education.

existing materials.

4. The Company’s operations and the results of the reporting year were affected by a number of key factors:

1) the admissions were first announced too late: although it was done the next day after obtaining the licence, most secondary school graduates had already made their choice by then;

2) potential students do not trust the little-known institution of higher education;3) potential students are aware of the options offered by educational establishments and

mostly trust the accredited study programmes implemented by accredited institutions of higher education;

4) the low employment rate in the country, resulting in the residents’ low capacity to pay.

5. Research and development activities The Company’s activities took place in accordance with the plan: licences for 4 bachelor’s programmes and 2 master’s programmes were obtained.

6. Description/explanation of the Company’s financial position and financial performance, as well as the impact of expected uncertainty The Company closed the year 2011 with losses, as a lot of funds were invested in the image-building campaigns of the University College, which will pay off only in a year or two, provided that the ongoing global financial crisis has no major impact on the welfare of Latvia’s population.

7. Suggestions on using the Company’s profit or covering for losses It is expected to cover the losses of 2011 by holding massive promotional campaigns and public relations activities to attract a lot of students.

8. The Company’s advantages and resources, whose value is not reflected in the balance sheetA team of professional and competent academic staff member is being built at the University College, which is its greatest asset for attracting payments from students.

9. Sources of the Company’s funds, capital raising and risk management policyThe primary sources of the Company’s funds are tuition fees. In order to attract these funds and build the public profile of EIHSEBA University College, it is necessary to invest heavily in advertising during the first years. To reduce the risk, the results of admissions to all higher education establishments of Latvia in previous years are analyzed on a regular basis, and the

173

University College has created and will continue creating study programmes which are in high demand in Latvia.

10. The most important factors in determining the Company’s performance, including changes in the Company’s working environment, the Company’s reaction to these changes, investment and dividend policy During the period between the last day of the annual report and the day of signing this report, there were no significant events, which could materially affect the Company’s working environment and demand the Company’s response to such changes.
